Tasting notes
From vines planted in the 1860s, the 2014 Hill of Grace Shiraz raises the bar beyond the heights reached by the stellar 2015 Mount Edelstone, exceeding it in elegance and (forgive me) grace. It's one of those rare wines that manages to be mouthfilling and voluminous while seeming weightless. Airy notions of mixed spices, woodsmoke and herbs swirl above a mélange of red and black berries and a deep base of black olives and mocha, finishing with enormous silkiness and length.

Amazing aromas of wet aged beef, spices, crushed elderberries, peppercorns and bay leaf. Evolves in the glass all the time. Dynamic wine. Full body and polished, fully integrated tannin to the fruit. Finishes very fresh and vivid. Gorgeous to drink now, but will age wonderfully.
