Enticing aromas of spices, dark berries and plums, along with whiffs of inky liquorice and toasted cedar. Plums, raspberries, red and blackcurrants, mulberries, and spices along with chalky fine tannins.
Quelltaler Shiraz Cabernet s made with a minimal intervention approach, retaining and enhancing the natural expression of the fruit. Small batch open fermenters were used to treat vineyard parcels separately, allowing the winemaker to maintain and develop the unique characteristics of each vineyard. After fermentation, the wines were pressed into a combination of new and seasoned French and American oak barrels for a minimum maturation period of 18 months before individual barrel selection. Only the finest barrels that reflect the ‘terroir’ of Clare Valley are selected.
The Annie's Lane Quelltaler Shiraz Cabernet finely balances the richness of Shiraz with the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon. Plums, raspberries, red and blackcurrants, mulberries, and spices along with chalky fine tannins

"Aromas of chocolate, green leaf and/or mint (depending on how you see it), earth and spice, the latter perhaps an oak character. Only medium-bodied, the fruit is bright and buoyant, fresh and youthful in nature, with both varieties contributing to the spread of flavours. The tannin feels a touch gummy, but a little more bottle age should see it all come together."
