About the wine
"This is my best Shiraz' : Rob Paulazzo, winemaker
-
Shiraz is undoubtedly one of Australia’s most loved Red varietals and the Hilltops region in NSW is a superb location for cool climate Shiraz grapes. Winemaker Rob Paulazzo managed to secure meticulously selected superb fruit from a single vineyard for his 2022 Shiraz, resulting in a wine that’s bursting with flavour! The previous releases of this wine received huge scores from James Halliday, and were awarded a swag of Gold medals and trophies. “This is my best Shiraz,” Rob says proudly. “Only the finest barrels make the cut. At this price, a single vineyard Shiraz packing this much punch (and more than 10 years ageing potential) is seriously unbelievable value!”
-
The weather in the lead up to this vintage was cool and consistent, which allowed for a flavourful, expressive harvest of grapes. “Hilltops Shiraz grown in 2022 is considered outstanding,” reveals Rob. “The quality of the fruit for this wine was pristine.” Great grapes make sensational wine, and this drop is just that. It’s a deep, vibrant red with purple hues. It has intense aromas of dark plum and black cherry, complemented by hints of floral spice, white pepper and toasty oak.
-
Take a sip and you’re treated to a medium bodied wine, with elegance, intensity and length. There’s juicy red fruits and pepper spice, before a full and savoury core with lovely toasty oak, and long, soft tannins. This has great intensity and concentration to it, or as Rob puts it, “It’s an iron fist in a velvet glove.” It’s available in strictly limited quantities, “So do your tastebuds (and cellar!) a serious favour!” laughs Rob.
Best before
Enjoy now and for the next ten years from vintage, with careful cellaring.
