Critic reviews
Critic reviews
James Halliday – Look, this is not a patch on its Power of One sibling, yet there is heft, power and a girdle of oak, restraining a phalanx of baked dark fruits, molten licorice strap and a potpourri of spice. A rich, monolithic wine of considerable personality that may be a bit hot, but mercifully, is far from jammy. - Ned Goodwin MW

To be able to supply such a unique & extensive range of boutique wines, we don't hold much of the inventory. So with us, there is the added step of receiving the wine from our local suppliers before it is dispatched to you. Most orders are dispatched within 3-6 working days.

Longhop 'Old Vine' Shiraz 2021
Description
Description
Sourcing precious old vine survival plantings of the 1950s, and coupled with our non-interventional approach to winemaking, Longhop Wines found it’s provenance in handcrafting the rich, generous and full flavours of yesteryear. We create expressive wines showcasing, fruit, season and birth place.
THE CRAFT
Whole berry ferment in five ton open top fermenters with soft pump overs and minimal hand plunging. On skins for seven days, then basket pressed into young seasoned oak with ferment finishing off in barrel. Matured in French and American oak. Two rackings prior to blending and unfiltered bottling.
TASTING NOTE
17th consecutive vintage release of our flagship variety. A full bodied style, mouth filling flavour with a rich palate heading into black fruits, leather, mulberry and spice. Notes of cedary oak and firm tannins keep pulling the flavours through. Impressive length, very drinkable now, cellar to 8+ years.
