Winemaker Notes

Lifted blue and black fruits of blueberry conserve, mulberry, wild blackberry and black plum. There is a forest note that exhibits characters such as sandalwood, rosemary and wild thyme. Soft caressing tannins and voluptuous mouthfeel from plump Shiraz berries gives this wine a posture that belies its pedigree. The poise and piquancy of the fruit sitting on top of the structured mouthfeel provides confidence to cellar for 5-10 years.

Professional Ratings

92Wine Enthusiast

There’s quite a savory, earthy edge to this Rhône-based blend. Plump Damson plum fruit, fresh violets, cumin and a slight charred-beets nuance opens. It’s a medium-bodied bottling with supple, satiny fruit and quite chiseled, savory tannins. Finds a lovely place between texture and succulence.

91Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2022 Woodcutter's Shiraz is a brilliant entrée to Barossa Shiraz. It exhibits all the earthy, red gravel, ironstone characters that infuse the tannic structure, while fleshed out by dense, purple fruit. It has levity and balance and freshness too, which is ultimately what makes it a great wine. There's gorgeous splay of spicy tannins, chewy and a little grippy. Matured for 10 months in seasoned oak, "the 2023 is coming out of oak as we speak now," says winemaker Ian Hongell. The fruit for this wine cascades down from a number of different sources within the Barossa (including Eden Valley). It's very good. 15% alcohol.
