2002 Gemtree Vineyards Uncut Shiraz

Another outstanding example from the 2002 vintage in South Australia. The grapes are sourced from the Buttery family’s 35 year old Tatty Road vineyard. Husband and wife team, MELISSA and MIKE BROWN are responsible for the viticulture and winemaking.

Opaque black crimson colour with black hue. Superb scented nose with aroma of violets, blackcurrant and liquorice allsorts. The palate has excellent weight and mouthfeel. Layers of flavours are evident with ripe blackberry and plum dominant, followed by white pepper, liquorice and violet infusions. Fine grained tannins, perfect balance. Very long aftertaste of spice, blackberry and plum.
