“The Hallmark“ 2015 – 100% Premium Shiraz – 750ml

“The Hallmark“ 2015

100% Premium Shiraz

750ml


95/100 GOLD MEDAL – Huon Hooke, August 2018
Very deep red/purple colour, young and bright youthfulness, concentrated ripe fruit and lots of oak. The palate is very full-bodied and tannic, with concentration and l=muscle to burn. The tannins are drying and savoury, furry and supple, while the finish and aftertaste are big on aniseed and blackberry, with a warm alcohol afterglow. A whopper, extremely cellar-worthy, and very good. (2019-2040)
TOP RANKED equal #2 OF 24 – 2015 Shiraz from Heathcote

94/100 SILVER MEDAL, 2019 James Halliday Wine Companion

Tasting Notes

This wine displays a rare combination of finesse and power. It is deep and brooding, garnet red in colour.  The bouquet has a floral character with hints of rose petal and violets. Red and black berries dominate the front palate, leading to dark honey and spice in the middle, and ‘figgy pudding’ on the finish. The wine effortlessly carries its tannins, alcohol and natural acidity to deliver an elegant, complex wine that will age for 10+ years.

The 2015 Vintage Season: 
2015 was a great year. There were good spring rains. The summer was mostly dry, however a few short rain events maintained soil moisture until harvest. Favourable weather conditions meant that minimal fungicide treatment was required on the vines.

The Vineyard: 
The fruit is sourced from or vineyards on the east and west sides of the Mount Camel ridge line. These majority of the vines were planted in 1999 and 2000 and have developed without irrigation. Their deep roots access sufficient summer moisture to produce vines yielding 1 to 1.5 tonnes to the acre, producing fruit of intense flavor and exceptional quality.

The Winemaking: 
The Hallmark, our premium Shiraz, is made in small batches selected from only the very finest barrels. The fruit for this wine was hand pruned, hand-picked, basket pressed then aged in French oak for 18 months prior to bottling. This wine has neither been filtered nor fined.

Tasting Notes: 
Aromas of dried flowers and raspberries are evident on the nose, with berry fruits and toasted honey complementing the palate, and elegant tannins delivering a long finish. This wine will reward cellaring for 5 to 10 years.
