PAUL AND KATHY DROGEMULLER established Paracombe Wines in 1983 following the devastating Ash Wednesday bushfires. Located on a plateau on the edge of the Torrens Valley, the Paracombe vineyard is uniquely placed in some of the most picturesque countryside of the Adelaide Hills with scenic views to Mount Lofty and the historic former Governor’s residence at Marble Hill. The high altitude, cool climate and quality vineyard management provide the ideal environment for producing distinctive fruit driven wines boasting greater finesse and varietal intensity. Low cropping levels and minimal irrigation also ensure optimum grape flavour and quality.

A SUPERB REFINED SHIRAZ. Very deep black crimson colour with deep black purple hue. Perfumed nose with violet top note followed by spice, plum, liquorice and marzipan notes. The palate is refined with both weight and depth of flavour. Velvet tannins. Flavours of plum, spice and blackberry emerge. Outstanding length. Very long white pepper, ripe plum and cedar aftertaste.
Cellar 3-4 years (2006-2007)
