Winemaker Notes

From the exceptional 2002 vintage comes this Shiraz, showing intense varietal characters of dark cherries and ripe plums, complexed with fragrant spice aromas and toasty oak characters as a result of 15 months maturation in American hogsheads and barriques.

Although Bremerview is drinking well now, with generous fruit and typical soft Langhorne Creek tannins, it will also develop earthy and chocolaty flavors if cellared for 5-6 years.
