Cleanskin Claret Shiraz

$6.99

Winery Overview Nova Vita Wines is a family-owned winery based in the Adelaide Hills, producing cool-climate wines that focus on balance, structure, and regional character. The winerys philosophy centres on careful vineyard management and minimal intervention winemaking, allowing the fruit and site o take the lead. This cleanskin release highlights a Claret-style expression of Shiraz, offering a more structured and savoury take that reflects both the region and the vintage. Region and Vintage Conditions The Adelaide Hills provides ideal conditions for structured red wines, with cooler temperatures and a long growing season. The 2018 vintage delivered even ripening and good fruit concentration, allowing the Shiraz to develop depth while retaining natural acidity and balance. Winemaking Techniques Shiraz fruit was harvested at optimal ripeness and fermented with controlled extraction to build structure without harshness. Oak was used with restraint to add subtle complexity and texture while maintaining varietal clarity and freshness. Tasting Notes Appearance Deep ruby red Aroma Black cherry, blackberry, gentle spice, and subtle savoury notes Palate Medium to full-bodied with dark fruit flavours, savoury undertones, and fine-grained tannins. The wine shows good structure with balanced acidity and depth. Finish Firm, clean, and persistent with lingering dark fruit and spice Key Characteristics Cool-climate Adelaide Hills Shiraz Claret-style structure with savoury depth Dark fruit profile with balance and restraint Fine tannins and good length Food Pairing Recommendations Pairs well with roast lamb, grilled meats, slow-cooked dishes, or rich vegetable-based meals.
