2022 Clyde Park Single Block E Shiraz

Clyde Park Vineyard was established by Gary Farr in the late '70s and passed through several ownership changes; today Terry Jongebloed and Sue Jongebloed-Dixon are the owners, while Jess Robertson (previously at Punt Road Wines and Mount Langhi Ghiran) is the head winemaker. Clyde Park's uncompromising approach to winemaking and viticulture has put it at the forefront of the Geelong region's growth as a premium wine region of Australia.

Other Reviews...
From a north-facing slope at Clyde Park that was planted in 1996; 30% whole bunches and 25% new oak. A saturated crimson purple. A gorgeous wine from the get-go with its lifted aromas of dark cherries, black raspberries, florals and spice rack spices. Tightly wound, focused and concentrated, this has all the components to age magnificently over the next 10-plus years. In the meantime, give this some air and pair it with some aged porterhouse, if that's your thing! 140 dozen made. Drink: 2022-2035
