Over The Hill Circa 1880 Shiraz 2012 (Sold Out)

93+ Points / Gold Outstanding – Campbell Mattinson Wine Front Grown on vines planted circa 1880. Hand picked, crushed and open fermented for 12 days. Matured in new and seasoned French oak for 24 months. Dense but vibrant. A soak of red cherry, plum, blackberry and tar, with lifted notes of orange peel and clovey spice. Teeters on the exotic. Tannin is stern and earthen yet still manages to go with the juicy flow of the wine. You’d almost describe this as “dense but light”. Its flavour profile is a modern rendition of a classic McLaren Vale Burgundy style. Rated : 93+ Points (+; has the potential to become better with cellaring) Tasted : May15 Alcohol : 14.5% Price : $75 Closure : Cork Drink : 2016 – 2028

Rating:93 Drink By:2032 Date Tasted:25 May 2015Alcohol:14.5% James Halliday – Published on 10 Aug 2016 Hand-picked, crushed and open-fermented for 12 days, then matured in new and used French oak for 2 years. A richly endowed wine, with an array of black (predominantly) and red fruits, an air brush of McLaren Vale chocolate joined at the hip with oak. Everything is on song until the last moment when there is a slight phenolic catch on the flow.
