2001 Annie's Lane Shiraz

In the early days of winemaking in the Clare Valley the local community would often help each other during busy times in the season. After delivering lunches to workers pruning vines in the middle of winter one year, Annie Wayman's horse-drawn cart struck difficulty in negotiating the muddy track back to her cottage. From that day on, the track has been affectionately known as Annie's Lane, and today borders one of our major vineyards in the Clare Valley.

The 2001 Annie's Lane Shiraz displays intense aromas of lifted blackberry and spice integrated with subtle smoky oak. The palate is rich, soft and full bodied with sweet black cherry flavours. Fine supple tannins contribute to a balanced mouth feel and excellent length.
