About this winei

Our Estate Shiraz is crafted with a commitment to traditional winemaking values. Fermentation takes place in original open vats well over 150 years old, with maturation then in similarly aged large French oak prior to bottling. Smaller French and American oak barrels are also used, with the wine from these blended back during the final filtering and bottling.

The result is fruit-driven wines of much flavour and substance generally showing lifted violets, spice, and clove aromas, the palate bold and bright with wild berry and plum fruits finishing with supple and savoury tannins.

Further cellaring has been proven over the years to develop added character and complexity with earthy, leather and cedary/cigar box qualities coming to the fore, the tannins softening and comfortably sitting in the background.

A most definite food-friendly wine.
When young the bold and fruit forward characters of Tahbilk Shiraz would be well suited to robust meat based stews, grilled or roast beef and strong hard cheeses especially cheddar. With some age look to game dishes of roast duck, venison or kangaroo and the leanness and delicate flavours of veal.

Tasting Notei

Tahbilk 2022 Shiraz
Halliday 94 Points | Enjoy Now to 2035/2039 Plus | 14.5% Alcohol
A few swirls of the glass has ripe plum, blackberry and violet aromas coming through, with white pepper and boysenberry rounding out the nose.
The palate has a surprising initial softness … the tannin glides across the back. There is a tart cranberry acidity that knocks the balance off making it a little bit more crunchy drinking young but will do okay with a bit of age under its belt. Very much a cool climate style Shiraz which is reflective of the 2022 vintage.
Drink now over the next 2 years, rest for the following 3-5 years, then enjoy for the next 10 years.

Tahbilk 2016 Shiraz
Silver Medal Winner | Halliday 94 Points | Enjoy Now to 2032/2035 | 14.0% Alcohol
The colour has lightened with bottle age and now more of a light to medium pale ruby.
Incredibly classic and unique aged Tahbilk aromas. Dried plum, burnt sage bush and milled sawdust. The tannins have softened and are well integrated into the palate where you will find supple and juicy red fruit, lovely white pepper, clove and nutmeg spice lingering on. Still got a little bit of give with acidity in check, enjoy over the next 10 years ... easily!
