Mount Langi Ghiran Cliff Edge Shiraz 2018 (Grampians)
Dozen Price: $335.88
RRP: $32.99
The 2018 Mount Langi Ghiran Cliff Edge Shiraz is a vivid plum red with a hint of purple hue. The bouquet has red and blue fruits, aniseed and mixed spice. The palate provides supple warmth with black cherry, blackberry and hints of raspberry. Fine savoury tannins drag the flavours long, finishing with lingering mixed spice and a beautifully balanced texture.
"50% hand-picked, 50% machine-harvested (traditional), part whole berry, part crushed, 2 weeks on skins with cultured yeast, 14 months in French barriques (30% new). The Grampians at its most seductive. Medium-bodied, with supple dark fruits, liquorice, spice and soft tannins." 96 Points - James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion 2021 "Another cracking shiraz from this excellent Grampians producer. Medium-weight fruit with a spicy plumminess supported by a thread of chalky fine tannins. Has remarkable focus and direction through the palate."
93 Points Top 100 for 2020 - Ray Jordan, The West Australian

Winery & Vintage Info
The 2018 Cliff Edge Shiraz is sourced from a selection of blocks across the historic Mount Langi Ghiran vineyard situated in the Grampians region of Victoria. The combination of Langi’s cool climates, old vines and granite sands produce Shiraz with great intensity, purity and finesse.
The structure is unique; the fine, powdery, slightly savoury structure juxtaposes the rich, sweet, spicy fruit creating a balance of boldness and elegance. The sheer generosity of this wine makes it ready to drink now, while the less-ripe tannins and firmness of structure suggests this wine has a long future to settle into as well.
Maturation completed using open fermenters, plunged, portion of whole bunch fermentation which included some foot stomping. 100% French Oak, 25-30% New. Winery Notes
