Wine Description
Our Estate Stone Well Shiraz from the very good 2022 vintage is a blend of 5 primary Shiraz blocks on the Estate; Block 1, 6, 9, 10 and 11. The vineyard and
resulting wine are both Australian and EU Certified Organic. The soil varies significantly across the blocks with different topsoil depths - vines are on
own roots and were planted in the late 1940s. The wine has all the hallmarks of the Stone Well area - bright purple red hue, blackberry and earth, full
bodied. The dense fruit is balanced by abundant natural tannins. Quite plush as you would expect from such a wonderful vintage. A wine that will cellar
well in the right conditions, but can be consumed on release.
