Heathcote Estate Shiraz 2010

Heathcote, Victoria   |    750ml   |    14.5%
Heathcote Estate was established in 1999 as an ultra premium producer solely focused on the production of one wine - a single vineyard Shiraz. The Bialkower and Kirby families shared vision of excellence is reflected in their single-minded focus on quality across the entire winemaking process.

"95 Points. Impenetrable colour; no shrinking violet in any regard, this dense, muscular and deeply fruited wine is full of tar, licorice, sage and a veritable cornucopia of black fruit; the tannins dominate this as a young wine, but the concentration and complexity are undeniable; full-bodied and full throttle, with the stuffing to go the distance. Screwcap. 14.5% alc. To 2030" - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2013 Edition.

"Our 5 individual blocks and their various sections where handled separately in the winery and vintage 2010 created 14 unique batches of wine. The grapes were fermented in a combination of open and closed fermenters after gentle destemming, with some batches receiving whole bunches. The wines where then pressed and transferred immediately into barrels for malolactic fermentation. It remained in barrel for a total of 17 months (a combination of 20% new, second and third use barrels, 100% French oak) and during maturation was racked three times. During the winemaking and maturation process, the most exceptional parcels of shiraz were identified and only the most outstanding made it into the final blend. This commitment to quality saw 40% of the Shiraz being declassified from the final blend. The resulting wine was bottled in September 2011."- Heathcote Estate.
