2003 KAYS AMERY HILLSIDE SHIRAZ
The Hillside vineyard had its beginnings in 1992 when cuttings from the 100 year old gnarled vines of Block 6 were planted on the eastern hillside of the Amery property - further plantings of the Block 6 clone took place in 1993, 1997, 1998 and 1999. The 2003 Hillside Shiraz grapes were harvested in March, traditionally processed (open fermentation and basket pressing) and will have aged in new American oak casks for 28 months prior to bottling in late July 2005.
Colour: Deep cherry black.
Bouquet: Sweet fruit perfume of black cherries, blackberries, white pepper and spices over subtle toasty oak.
Palate: A rich, round, soft, voluptuous, fruit driven Shiraz with a hint of confectionery sweetness in the background. A very approachable full bodied combination of blueberries, plum, Ribena, mocha chocolate, spice box, vanilla and pepper fill the palate with pleasurable flavours and the balanced soft tannin finish has both length and persistence. Excellent cellaring potential. 15% alc/vol.
Can be purchased by the each but $15.00 delivery charge will apply.
