Expert Reviews

Rating 97 - James Halliday - Published on 17 Jul 2012, Australian Wine Companion

Light, clear crimson; given the medium-bodied weight of the wine, the intensity and length of the wine is prodigious; unlike the '08, red fruits are the main theme, rather than black, on the aromatic bouquet and through the palate. Made from very old vines, and comes with a 20-year cellaring guarantee; French oak and fine tannins complete the story of its ultra-limited production.

Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

Our traditional winemaking practices saw exceptional extraction followed by 24 months maturation in new French barriques. The integration is superb. The resultant wine has terrific balance and structure. There is real power yet elegance. This is the paradox that best describes great wine.

Hewitson 2009 Private Cellar Shiraz Mourvèdre has a cellaring potential of at least 20 years.
