The Noble Red vineyard was established in 2002 in the Heathcote region on rich and ancient Cambrian soils. In addition to the ½ acre of Shiraz planted in the 1970s, the Sobiesiak family planted 2 acres of Shiraz soon after the purchase. Today, there is 15 acres under vine. The majority of the plantings are Shiraz with small parcels of Tempranillo, Mourvedre and Cabernet.
The vineyard has adopted a dry-grown philosophy with the use of minimal chemicals - producing fruit that is low yield and concentrated. The wines are big Heathcote wines, typical of the region. We have achieved 5 star winery by James Halliday two years in a row.
Noble Red BST has been made using 20% whole bunches and aged for 12 months in French oak (20% new). Winery Notes
Reviews & Accolades
"BST = Blood, sweat and tears. Heathcote shiraz.
Alcohol dims the lights on the freshness of the fruit but there’s still plenty of goodness to tuck into here. Blackberry, tar, chocolate and raspberry flavours combine well before alcohol thins the finish fractionally. Tannin talks a big game but the fruit doesn’t quite go with it."
