2018 Corryton Burge Shiraz

A rich, soft and subtle Australian Shiraz.

Deep ruby red with purple hues, strawberry, raspberry and vanilla aromas. Rich fruit forward characters of raspberry and plums tantalise the palate. There is a soft toasty oak influence that enhances the vanilla and spice. Subtle tannins leave the palate quite moreish and a delight to keep coming back to.

Viticulture

Timely rain and an Indian Summer slowed the pace of ripening allowing flavours and tannin structure to develop/ The resulting harvest meant smaller berries of intense flavour and colour, along with excellent tannins and natural acidity.

Vinification
