James Halliday – and-picked fruit was given a 2-day cold soak and then femented in open vats with 20% whole bunches and 25% whole berries, 24 days on skins. Matured for 12 months in French barriques and puncheons (30% new). A shiraz rich in Central Victorian charm and honest flavours of its terroir. Buoyant aromas of blackberry, mint, bitter chocolate and earth. Beautifully integrated, everything in its place, with a smooth ride to the finish. – Jeni Port
