Mornington shiraz usually falls more into that ‘syrah’ category - more savoury, herbal, peppery and medium-bodied than the fruit bombs from warmer regions. This one certainly fits that description. The producer has sourced it from a single vineyard in Tuerong, a littlePeninsula sweet spot for growing, and utilised 40% whole bunches in the fermentation. That’s where you get the spice and bramble that add so much interest to this wine. The fruit is more towards pinot-esque strawberries and cherries, whilst there’s hints of digestif-like aromatics prevalent. Oh, and there’s no fining or filtering, preserving a lovely texture and making the wine vegan-friendly.
