Di Giorgio’s Coonawarra Shiraz sees 18 months élevage in French and American oak hogsheads (35% first use, 65% older oak).
2022
Offers vibrant aromas of raspberry, red currant, liquorice and peppercorn spice, leading to a richly flavoured palate with mulberry, black pepper, chocolate and dark berry fruit, supported by smooth velvety tannins and integrated toasty oak.

2021
Excellent ripening conditions for the 2021 harvest saw a concentration of fruit and flavour. The colour is deep crimson with purple edges. A bouquet of raspberry, spice and cracked pepper is backed by well-balanced oak spice. The palate is deliciously ripe with raspberry, mulberry and liquorice mingling with black pepper, chocolate and spice. It finishes with vibrant black fruit, smooth velvety tannins and toasty vanilla oak. Time in bottle will see even more complexity develop, with an increase in cedar and savoury characters.
