McLaren Vale W. Colton Shiraz 2020
PRODUCT INFO
One of the first settlers in McLaren Vale, William Colton paved the way for farming and growing the Vale into what it is today.
Since European settlement South Australia has been the favoured climate for densely packed, bright, super premium red wines. Three regions stand out, the Barossa, McLaren Vale and Coonawarra and one wind dominates, the Brickfielder. Seasonal warm winds from the dry inland interior channel in from the north during vintage towards the coast, aiding in sugar development and veraison and reducing disease pressure. The result, small yields of intense, high quality balanced fruit recognised globally for its flavour profile. We have the Brickfielder to thank for that.
