Another of our single vineyard wines, Edgehill is a classic McLaren Vale Shiraz with rose and violet florals on the nose combined with blueberry and some red fruits (plum and cranberry). There is also some liquorice and dark chocolate there too. Edgehill is a super mid-weight wine with a delicious cedar and toasty finish.

Tasting Notes
Rose and violet florals on the nose are combined with blueberry and some red fruits plum and cranberry. There is also some liquorice and dark chocolate there too a very classic McLaren Vale Shiraz characteristic. All of those vibrant primary fruit characters flow through to the palate where they are accompanied by some toasty characters, cedar and a hint of clove. VEGAN FRIENDLY
Vintage
Vineyard Notes
A Mary Poppins kind of vintage; practically perfect! Good winter and early spring rains were followed by a generally dry and mild growing season. After the leaner vintages of 2019 and 2020 it was nice to see a return to long-term average crop levels. We had a slow and steady ripening period without any excessive heat spikes which has resulted in super varietal fruit intensity and balanced natural acidity.
Winemaking
Winemaker Notes
Single Vineyard Shiraz Our inspiration for bottling small volumes of Shiraz from single vineyards was the Scarce Earth program, which was a McLaren Vale initiative exploring and celebrating the geological climatic and soil diversity of the region. This program has been mothballed for now, but we have continued to bottle small volumes of these single vineyard wines. Soil Type: Urrbrae stony loam Geology: Christies Beach formation, Quaternary period Elevation: 138 metres Vine Age:  Planted 1972 (52 years old) Vine clone: unknown heritage Soils: Edgehill comprises predominantly free-draining Urrbrae stony loam and well-drained clays interspersed with a large amount of various types of stones. This soil is very well-drained which vines like, but at the same time has good water holding properties. Winemaking: Edgehill Shiraz is made using Shiraz grapes grown exclusively on the Edgehill vineyard which is over the road from the home block where cellar door is located. It has been hand-made, hand bottled and is unfiltered. The wine was open fermented then matured in a mixture of 50% new French and older oak.
