"Our DtG Shiraz is created by sourcing and harvesting only the very best premium Victorian fruit. As soon as primary fermentation was complete, the wine was racked into 500L French Oak Puncheons (80% New Oak, 20% 1 Year Old), where it was left to go through malolactic fermentation. With minimal intervention, the viticulture/winemaking was more important than ever.

The DTG Shiraz is a beautiful dark garnet colour with black cherry, blueberry and mixed spice on the nose. Hints of pepper and soft oak spice are beautifully integrated with blackberry fruits and medium bodied silky tannins." Winery

"Opulent and enticing, the perfumed bouquet shows black and purple fruit intensity, cedar, clove and dark chocolate aromas. It’s concentrated and richly textured in the mouth, delivering plump mouthfeel backed by layers of silky tannins, finishing superbly long and satisfying. At its best: now to 2034." 5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, October 2024 (2022 Vintage)

"Deep ruby hue with aromas of violets, plum, Christmas spices, bramble berries, and a hint of white pepper. Big and ripe on the palate, with sweet fruit and spice leading to a smooth, lingering finish of espresso and chocolate. Soft, ripe tannins lend structure to the powerful fruit—lush and bold, perfect for a smoky slab of barbecued goodness." 5 Stars & 93/100 The Wine Writer, October 2024 (2022 Vintage)
