The Hampel vineyard is a low yielding site in Kalimna. There's a lovely elegance to this Shiraz - a fabulous wine.
Beautifully balanced, bold fruit is pitched superbly. Some tension early but it settled over a couple of days. Delicate wood spices are matched with licorice and a dusting of fine baking spices which seemingly refuse to leave. Dusty and powdery like tannins cling to a persistent and moreish finish. Be patient and be rewarded - brilliant!
