Tasting Notes
Dark, darker, darkness. This is not a negative profile of the wine - it's actually a compliment. It's very rare these days to find a black fruited, savoury rendition of Shiraz in warm climate Australia. Michael Dhillon picks this wine about 2 weeks before anyone in Heathcote is even contemplating it and it's all the better for it. This varietal wine shows dark spice of anise and aniseed, clove and pepper that mould nicely around the black fruits mentioned earlier. The palate is long with moderate concentration and refreshing acidity. It's a serious Shiraz for those of you who want to drink some of the best this country has to offer. - Chris L
All Bindi wines are grown in our vineyards and made by us at Bindi. Our vines grow in a mix of ancient stony/rocky Ordovician soils and younger volcanic soil. We intensively manage the vines by hand and harvest by hand. We plough under vine and do not use systemic herbicides. We do not use systemic foliage sprays or pesticides. We use compost and compost tea and also use cow horn preparation, fish and seaweed. Our wines are made without adding yeast, yeast nutrient, enzyme or any fining agents. The wines spend many months on yeast lees in old and new French barrels. Our intention is to capture the expression of the Bindi landscape in our wines each season. - Winery Note
