Aromas of toasty oak and roasted cashews support rich nectarine fruit with hints of melon leading to a long grapefruit finish. The free run juice was fermented in powerful French oak coopered in Burgundy introducing spicey, toasty complexity and rich creamy texture. Additionally, the wine was allowed to go through secondary malolactic fermentation further softening the wine and enhancing the rich savoury textures.
A blend of three varieties growing alongside each other in the Frankland River wine growing region to the north of the Great Southern – 60% Pinot Gris, 30% Gewürztraminer and 10% Riesling. A small proportion of the pinot gris spent 6 months in French oak puncheons. As expected, the nose is a complex combination of exotic, citrus and stone fruits with fragrant, lifted floral notes. The palate repeats the complex blend of fruit flavours with hints of spice in the mid palate leading to a long citrus finish. The wine will improve with careful cellaring over a five year period.
The Great Southern of Western Australia produces some of the best Shiraz grapes in Australia. Fruit from a careful selection of Great Southern vineyards is used in the Harewood Estate Reserve Shiraz, combining the licorice and black cherry typical of premium Frankland River Shiraz with the pepper and blackberry notes of cooler climate Mount Barker Shiraz. The wine is a dense crimson colour with youthful purple hues. A rich and vibrant nose displaying an enticing combination of violets, black pepper, blackcurrant and coffee bean complemented by spicy, vanillin french oak. A seamless, complete palate combining cherry, blackberry and plum with cinnamon, pepper and licorice leading to a complex finish of mocha and vanilla supported by fine grained tannins.
A pleasant nose with fruity notes of yellow fruits and peach. A fresh and elegant palate with some citrus flavours.
