ALL THE SHIRAZ WINES
2021 Harewood Shiraz
93 pts – Ken Gargett (Wine Pilot)
Fruit from both the Frankland River and Mt Barker sub-regions is included.The colour is a near opaque magenta. Cherries, leather, truffles and black fruits. There is some slightly sappy acidity and a sour cherry note on the palate. Good length, a silky texture and solid tannins offer a promising future so it will provide pleasure for at least the next decade. Good value here.
Deep, dark and very bright purple-red colour, with a lovely detailed aroma of chocolate and herbs, both fresh and dried; floral nuances and red fruits. A complex wine already: it will be great to see it a few years down the track.
A beautiful nose of intense liquid blackberry-deep and alluring. The body has sweet succulent fruit, chocolatey flavours and fine, but definitely present tannins. A complex wine of high quality.
94pts- Winestate World’s Greatest Shiraz/Syrah XVII Wine Show
A very young but impressive shiraz with a spicy mulberry bouquet with hints of plums and a tight elegant palate.
2017 Silkwood ‘The Walcott’ Shiraz
94 pts – Huon Hooke (The Real Review)
Medium to full red colour with a purple tint, the bouquet a mix of black fruits, earth and ironstone with suble spice notes. Intense, bright palate with freshness and intensity and drive. Elegant and powerful; very long finish.
Deep dark inky purple, rich Barossa Shiraz flavours of plums, chocolate and spice with the Grenache contributing a lush round palate and red summer berry lifted fruit. With good cellaring conditions this wine will cellar and improve for up to 25 years
A label used by Single Vineyard Sellers to present wines from selected sources. This is a robust, slightly rustic Mudgee Shiraz made from organic fruit. It’s a generous red that would go well with steak or sausages or big beef casseroles.
2018 Silkwood Estate ‘The Bowers’ Shiraz
91 pts – Halliday Wine Companion
Savoury shiraz with enough fruit-flavour to make it juicy and satisfying. Clove and pepper-spice notes thread through red cherry and plum. There are some green herb notes here, too, but the wine is ripe, well-shaped and easy to enjoy.
