2022 Treadlie Shiraz

A$27.00

Medium garnet, the nose is vibrant and layered, with aromas of boysenberry and sweet spices. The palate is juicy and delicious supported by dark spice and notes of game and charcuterie.

Enjoy with chargrilled lamb, or roast vegetable kebab.

Shiraz has been the mainstay of the McLaren Vale landscape since winemaking began 150 years ago. Historically the variety has had a reputation for creating bold, rich, full-bodied wines. These days many winemakers strive to create something perhaps a little less β€œin your face” that display more primary fruit and a little less of the overripe fruit characters. Ours is certainly made in the latter style

  • Type: Red

  • Variety: 90% Shiraz, 10% Bastardo

  • Appellation: McLaren Vale

  • Vintage: 2022

  • Alc:14.5%

  • Hatwell Home Block Vineyard

    Viticulturalist: Matt Hatwell

    This vineyard provides a classic setting for growing McLaren Vale Shiraz. Lots of exposure ensures that fruit ripens quickly enabling excellent varietal expression at low Baumes. Hence we get good flavour with lower alcohol levels compared to other sites. Lots of exposure also helps control vigour and ensure even ripening.

  • Machine harvested in the cool of night. Picked early to retain natural acidity and fresh flavour. No added acid, enzymes or tannin. 5 days skin contact time. Shiraz can be quite tannic, minimising time on skins helps to reduce tannin extraction thus creating approachable style. There has been an addition of 10% Bastardo which gives the wine savoury character on the finsh. No oak was used for maturation. The wine was bottled straight after malolactic fermentation was complete
