Hill of Enon Shiraz

The 2003 maiden release of the Hill of Enon Shiraz was the culmination of many years of walking the rows on the Hill. We studied the vines throughout the seasons from budbreak to harvest, understanding the anomalies of the circular chalk formations wherein the vineyards are planted and then examining the combined effects of the mineral content and soil drainage. This unique terroir produced extraordinary small berries which ripened ten days before the main crop. These small berries were much more intensely flavoured and prompted us to harvest them separately to make this exceptional wine.

Cellarmaster’s Notes Delicate layered nose of blue berries, licorice and dark chocolate. These flavours follow through onto a delicate palate, with wood integration, plums, cigar box and chocolate that finishes with a velvety smooth long aftertaste.
