Wine List/Thomas

[SOLD-OUT] Thomas DJV Shiraz 2017

"Quite intentionally in the lighter end of the medium bodied spectrum. A tribute to ‘Hunter River Burgundy’ featuring perfumed red berried fruit and spice. A Shiraz for Pinot lovers.


 

Sourced from the alluvial flats of Hermitage Rd, the Trevena vineyard (planted 1966) produces the 'lightness' we are looking for in this style. The acidity profile was balanced by co-fermenting the Shiraz with a small portion (6%) of green Semillon ‘verjus’.


Bright cherry red in colour, the wine is light on its feet with 'pretty' and perfumed red berried fruits, some dried herb complexity and superb carry of vibrant silky textured fruit character. A wine of seamless elegance and class that drinks magnificently now, but will reward careful cellaring. Quite intentionally in the lighter end of the medium bodied spectrum, but definitely punches well above its weight."
