Tyrrell's Rufus Stone Shiraz 2024 (Heathcote)

The Rufus Stone story dates back to medieval England and refers to the death of King William II, known as Rufus. Rufus was believed to have been killed by an errant arrow fired by Sir Walter Tyrrell - an ancestor of the Tyrrell family.

Today the site of this infamous incident is marked by the Rufus Stone. Since 1997, Tyrrell's historical association with the Rufus Stone has been utilised for its top non-Hunter red wines, sourced from vineyards in Heathcote and McLaren Vale.

Heathcote is one of Australia’s exciting red wine regions. Its unique topography, combined with a temperate climate and ancient Cambrian soils, produces Shiraz fruit with great depth and intensity. The resulting wines are powerful yet elegant with rich fruit characters complimented by pepper spice, balanced with acidity and fine grained tannins.

Tyrrell's Rufus Stone Heathcote Shiraz is one of the most awarded wines in the Tyrrell's portfolio and continues to deliver on quality.
