Hartenberg Gravel Hill Shiraz 2002

100% Shiraz The gravel hill is from a single vineyard site which reflects the unique position it occupies on Hartenberg estate. It is made up of pure red gravel stone on a lower slope of the property. This terroir consistently produces a wine unique in character, quality and expression. The wine spent 16 months in 100% small, 225 litre French oak, of which 60% was new, the balance being 2nd fill. Tasting note: Black, deep centred colour. Perfumed violet and vanilla oak mixed with pepper and spices on the bouquet. Mouthfeel shows clean primary fruit with succulent, elegant mid palate and a refined finish.

Winemaker: Carl Schultz
