A lot of love goes into our wines, and our Jester Shiraz is no exception. The vineyards for the Jester Shiraz are located at the southern end of McLaren Vale, close to the seaside town of Aldinga. The combination of cool sea breezes and gully winds provide ideal conditions for growing fruit of intensity and balance. The vines sit in heavy clay, which gives the wine powerful dark fruit flavours. Full flavoured, with dark fruits and savoury black olive characters, and soft, silky tannins.
COLOUR
Deeply coloured and beautifully purple red
NOSE
Bright red fruit and fresh cut herbs, pure blackberry, mulberry, cassis, sits well with more savoury liquorice and choc mint, subtle smoky and spicy oak
PALATE
Supple and tightly wound juicy raspberry and satsuma plum flavours fill the mouth initially, framed perfectly by gentle but just there velvety tannins, and complemented by a more serious olive tapenade, dried crushed herb finish. This is a juicy and moreish wine that also has a serious side.
