Winemaker Notes

"These two 100% varietal offerings [Cabernet Sauvignon 2002 and Shiraz 2002] spent 12 months in American oak. The inky/ruby/purple-colored, peppery, black currant, and licorice-infused 2002 Shiraz exhibits plenty of vinosity, a layered, medium to full-bodied palate, and a pure, ripe, concentrated finish. Enjoy it over the next 5-10 years."
-Wine Advocate

A big flavoursome wine with intense colour, showing loads of syrupy blackberry, cherry oak, chocolate and spice on the nose. The palate is full-bodied and ripe tasting with toasty oak and sweet fruit in good harmony.

A sixth generation descendent of early Barossa settlers, Steve is described by James Halliday as one of the "quiet achievers of the Barossa Valley, who is apt to produce some startlingly good wines." With his family, he operates both vineyard and winemaking practices at Heritage and has created a reputation for excellence in both red and white wines.

A true advocate of the Barossa, Steve is committed to producing exceptional quality varietal wines with emphasis on regional fruit characteristics and the unique big-hearted Barossa style.

Though Syrah originated in the Rhône Valley of France, Australia is home to the oldest Syrah (called Shiraz here) vines on the planet. Found in Australia’s Barossa Valley, where phylloxera has never threated viticulture, these ancient vines are between 140 to 175 years old!

Having brought fame and merit to the country’s wine scene since the early 1950s, namely via the debut of Penfolds Grange, today Syrah (Shiraz) claims rank as the most widely planted grape in Australia. In fact, the amount of land dedicated to Shiraz in Australia is now almost equivalent to what it is in France. Australian Shiraz has its own personality with flavors and aromas of intense blackberry, fruitcake, menthol, tobacco leaf and umami. Conveniently one can find great Australian Shiraz at a variety of price points but the very best will be dense, gloriously complex and capable of long aging.
