The Victorian Shiraz
2022
The Victorian
Tait Hamilton
It has a deep red colour, and is quite aromatic with blackcurrant and sweet spice aromatics. There is also a chocolatey note – this is partly from oak maturation, but also a regional characteristic associated with good Heathcote fruit. The tannins have a lovely ripe plushness to them, and the wine feels rich and full bodied

tasting note
It has a deep red colour showing a little purple at the rim. It is quiet aromatic with blackcurrant and sweet spice aromas. There is also a chocolatey note – this is partially from oak maturation, but also a regional characteristic I associate with good Heathcote fruit. Tannins have a lovely ripe plushness to them, and the wine feels rich and full bodied.
Enjoy! Cheers, Sam.
‘Heathcote fruit provides a deep, densely coloured canvas for a medium-bodied, gently unfolding shiraz upholding the strongest Heathcote traditions of ripe black fruits, lifted spice and naturally achieved structure. Good drinking right now’
