Wine Description
Shiraz is one of Jen Pfeiffer’s favourite wines. Since her return to the family business she has really put her stamp on the Pfeiffer style, making a classically rich and full bodied wine with spice, pepper and red berry fruit flavours.
Our 2021 Pfeiffer Shiraz is a deep purple red colour, and has a lovely nose of dark fruit, spices and toasty oak. The palate is richly flavoured, with lovely depth across the mid-palate which persists to a long and savoury finish.
Winemaker's Bio
Jen Pfeiffer loves her winemaking role as much as ever, appealing to both her scientific and creative mind.
Jen has a meticulous approach to her winemaking, believing it is the small details that can turn a good wine into a great wine. She strives for excellence across all styles, and enjoys the challenge of working with many and different varieties, from Riesling to Gamay and Shiraz to the fortifieds for which the Rutherglen region is famous.
Jen is particularly passionate about fortified wines.
“These are magical wines, with a great story to tell. They are wines of time and patience. They are wines made with both an eye on the past and the future.”
It is with this vision that Jen aspires to become recognised as one of Australia’s pre-eminent fortified winemakers.
