Critic Review
Decanter Magazine: 93Pts (2022 Vintage)
Drinking Window: 2024 - 2030
"Fresh-faced, chubby, happy and generous, this is Shiraz that is so eager to please. Here’s the sweet forward red fruits, there’s the plush mid-palate that slides so effortlessly, here’s the black-fruited grip at the conclusion to prove that it’s not just a simple wine. It is exactly what it promises, and delivers; just drink and enjoy."
David Sly
About the Producer
"Heirloom Vineyards was conceived in vintage 2000, when a young winemaking student caught the eye of a silly old wine judge. A love story ensued inspired by two vows: To preserve the best of tradition, the old world of wine and our unique old vineyards and to champion the best clones of each variety planted in the most appropriate sites embracing the principals of organic farming. Seven long vintages of trial and error passed before Heirloom Vineyards could make a wine that was fine enough to pass on to future generations. That is this wine."
