2015 Jack Estate Shiraz
Colour
Deep ruby red with flecks of purple.
Aroma
Bramble berries and mulberries with hints of cloves, richly aromatic curry spices, and a hint of orange zest.
Palate
A complex array of dark berries meld with raspberry, dark chocolate and star anise. The wines rich fruit and spice is balanced with subtle oak, and velvety tannins, which combine to deliver an intense, yet elegant finish.
Winemaking
An excellent spring combined with a great berry set provided a vintage with balanced yields and high quality fruit. The warm summer months followed by a beautiful long ‘Indian summer’ allowed the grapes to be harvested at optimal flavour and maturity.
Only the finest parcels of fruit were selected from premium Coonawarra and Wrattonbully vineyards, enabling our winemaker to craft a wine that re-flects this perfect synergistic combination of these premium cool-climate regions.
Cellaring
With careful cellaring, this wine will gracefully age for the next 5 to 10 years.
Food matching
Enjoy with a crown rib roast of beef, garlic and herb infused carrots and spring vegetables roasted with copious volumes of your best local olive oil.
