Winemaker's Notes:

 The key to this wine is picking Shiraz while it has bright fruit characters, not when it is high in sugar (Baume or Brix) nor overripe. This is a fleshy wine with chocolate characters and a touch of spice. A full mid-palate and soft finish sets this region and wine style apart from other Australian Shiraz.
My Notes:

About Rolling:

 The passion behind Rolling is driven by winemaker Philip Shaw. With over 40 years experience in Australian wine, including 15 in Orange, Philip understands that great wines can only come from nurturing vineyards which have natural raw talent. We created Rolling wines to reflect the personality of the region and celebrate the people who love the land and work in union with its seasons.
