Far lighter than previous vntages; a medium-bodied, elegant wine; red cherry, black cherry and spice intermingle with balanced oak; silky finish. Cork. 13.5% alc. To 2020.

James Halliday – The Australian Wine Companion 2008 Edition
The 2005 Shiraz “Georgia’s Paddock” was aged in 20% new French and American oak. Yields for the wine were a meager 1.5 tons per acre. It exhibits an enticing perfume of smoke, pencil lead, mineral, blueberry, and blackberry. Made in an elegant style, the wine has lots of spice, rich flavors, plenty of depth, and a long finish. Drink it over the next 10-12 years. Jasper Hill is one of the top guns in Heathcote. The winery practices organic viticulture, dry farming, and has recently entered into a joint venture with Michel Chapoutier to develop a vineyard adjacent to the existing property.
