Woody Nook Single Vineyard Shiraz 2021

The fruit for this consistently good shiraz come mostly from a dry-grown low-yielding vineyard. Lots of dark fruit with a ripe plummy richness. It’s generous and full-bodied with a slightly savoury black pepper mix. The slightly vanillin influenced notes American oak are evident on the nose, creating a distinctive and individual wine for Woody Nook. Lots of bright fruit with a chalky limestone finish.

Highly scented and perfumed medium bodied blend of two Spanish varieties graciano and tempranillo. The combination of spicy cherry and raspberry merges with the subtle earthy savoury notes. It’s supple and juicy with a vibrant fruit lift. Plenty of chalky acid on the finish will support further ageing.

The old dry-grown vines play a significant role in this cabernet, which year after year delivers so much. It’s a fine and elegant style with a mix of blackcurrant and bay leaf with a subtle limestone and graphite minerality. The palate is still tightly held, but within there is excellent fruit concentration and vibrancy. The lift of sage and dried herbs provides the final touch.
