Shiraz clone “1654” is recognised as a benchmark for the classic Australian Shiraz profile, with intense fruit purity, fleshy mid-palate weight, and velvety tannins.

Description

Our vineyard, planted in the mid-1990s, includes three distinct Shiraz clones — among them, “1654”, originates from Barossa Valley vine stock and was selected in 1944 by Dr Harry Tulloch as the number one clone in his search for superior Shiraz variants. “1654” opens with enticing aromas of dark chocolate, Christmas cake, and peppermint. The palate is rich and layered, showing dark fruits and licorice, framed by supple tannins and 14 months of oak maturation. A balanced, fruit-forward Shiraz that will reward cellaring

Shiraz clone “PT10” is stylistically the polar opposite of 1654. Distinguished by its highly aromatic, savoury, Northern Rhône Syrah expression - arguably the most “French” behaving of the classic Australian heritage clones. Aromas of lifted florals, violets, white pepper, and fresh herbs, alongside savoury notes of black olive tapenade, soy, and cured meats
