Overview

The Shingleback D Block Shiraz is a distinguished expression of McLaren Vale’s unique terroir, crafted from a small niche of the Shingleback Vineyard where soil, climate, and Shiraz come together to create something truly special. This handcrafted wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including gentle hand working of the skins in small, 5-tonne open fermenters to preserve the distinctive qualities of the fruit. After maturation, only the finest barrels are selected, resulting in a Shiraz that showcases intense fruit power, complexity, and a harmonious balance that is characteristic of the Shingleback D Block Reserve wines.

 

Tasting Notes

The Shingleback D Block Shiraz offers an enticing bouquet of dark berries, with vibrant aromas of blackberry, plum, and a hint of spice. On the palate, the wine reveals layers of rich, ripe fruit, beautifully balanced with velvety tannins and subtle oak integration. The complexity of the wine is enhanced by a smooth, full-bodied mouthfeel and a lingering finish, with notes of dark chocolate and a touch of pepper adding depth and intrigue. This exceptional Shiraz reflects the unique character of its terroir, offering a sophisticated and elegant profile that will continue to evolve with age.
