2022 Havilah Shiraz

There is some lovely, albeit, tiny patches of this noble grape in Tasmania, we found one.  On the western side of the Tamar Valley,  I had my eye on this for years, and here we are, in a year warm enough to ripen it neatly.  

This is typically cool climate, but I still call it shiraz;  white pepper, blue fruits, fresh and crunchy acidity.  Spent some time in one of those real big fancy barrels that all winemakers secretly want to turn into a swimming pool one day.
