An intense concentration of fruit makes for a bold, generous Shiraz with an expressive nose and broad palate. Shiraz with 2% Viognier pressings matured in 30% new French oak puncheons for 20 months. A warm season presented us with low yields of intensely concentrated fruit to create a bold, generous Shiraz with an expressive nose and layered palate.

Founded in 2001 when Mark and Fiona Horrigan had the opportunity to purchase their Coldstream site, perfectly situated in the world-renowned Yarra Valley. Planting began in 2003, and in 2008 winemaker Damien Archibald joined the team. From the outset they’ve been inspired by the great wines and traditions of Burgundy, Rhône, and Loire Valleys in France. Based on principles of intensive land management and minimal intervention winemaking they aim to produce elegant and individual wines that express their terroir.
