Granite Hills Shiraz 2012
SOLD OUT - Click here to see the 2013 Vintage
Made from handpicked grapes, grown on low cropped 45 year old shiraz vines, utilising small batch fermentation techniques including hand plunging, followed by maturation in french and american oak barrels for three years.
From the first vintage in 1978, our Shiraz sets a benchmark for peppery Shiraz, renowned for its definitive flavour, balance, structure and ability to age gracefully in the bottle, given careful cellaring.
The palate is rich, mouth filling, well balanced and complete. It finishes long, with a final grip of fine tannins and persistent spicy fruit flavours.
Perched atop the spectacular boulder strewn hills of the Great Dividing Range at an altitude 550 meters, the view over Granite Hills vineyard and of central Victoria beyond, immediately gives you the impression of something quite special.
Trail blazers of viticulture and winemaking in what is statistically Australia’s coolest wine region, Granite Hills has celebrated success way beyond its size, winning more than 500 awards in Australian and International competitions.
