"Fabulous bouquet and palate with flavours of sweet ripe blackcurrant berries, fresh dark skinned plums, violets and dark roses, clay soils and scents of new wood with clove and baking spices. Youthful, fruity, fleshy textures and finishing dry, a wine with a core of fruit surrounded by fine easy tannins and plenty of acidity. Food friendly and ready to drink from 2023 through 2028+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Oct 2023
Perfectly ripe black plum and forest berry compote, with hints of pepper, spice, and a touch of sweet-cured meat on the nose. The palate is coiled and purposeful on entry and feels like it wants to explode. With a satin flow, a bright core of berry fruits and hints of spicy oak, this a very moreish wine.
The Lodge Hill Shiraz vineyard, on the Clare Valley’s eastern ranges, has soils of rich, chocolatey loam over almost vertical sheets of rock. The cracks between the rock have filled with soil, providing passage for the vine roots and free drainage - the ideal environment for low-yielding Shiraz vines.
Wine has been flowing in the Clare Valley since 1851 and is an integral part of the culture. It is one of Australia’s most prestigious premium wine regions, most famous for its Riesling and Shiraz. A small area, accounting for less than 1.5% of Australia’s total wine production. With its beautiful, rolling hills, ideal winter rainfall and Mediteranean climate, the Clare Valley carries a unique history and winemaking heritage.
