The Vineyard 1913 Premium Selection Shiraz 2024 is a smooth, approachable South Australian Shiraz crafted by a fourth-generation family-owned wine producer from the heart of the Riverland. Sourced from carefully selected vineyard parcels in the historic Monash Valley region, this wine reflects both the heritage of the land and the generous fruit character for which the Riverland is renowned. The vineyard itself traces its roots back to the early 1900s, when the land was originally subdivided and allocated to returning World War I soldiers, adding a layer of history and authenticity to this modern Australian Shiraz.

Grown in the warm, dry climate of South Australia’s Riverland, where low rainfall, mild winters and fertile sandy loam soils provide ideal grape-growing conditions, the fruit was harvested at optimal ripeness between 13.5 and 14.0 Baume to ensure full flavour development and balanced tannin structure. Careful row selection allowed only the best parcels to be included in the final blend, helping deliver both richness and consistency throughout the wine.

During winemaking, the grapes were fermented on skins under controlled temperatures to maximise colour, flavour intensity and varietal character. Gentle pressing and the careful integration of free-run and pressing fractions created added body and structure, while temperature-controlled storage preserved the wine’s vibrant fruit purity and freshness.

In the glass, the wine reveals a deep crimson hue with youthful vibrancy. The palate is medium-bodied, smooth and fruit-driven, showcasing ripe dark berry and plum flavours supported by soft spice and subtle savoury undertones. Silky tannins and balanced structure provide an easy-drinking, food-friendly style that remains elegant and approachable while still offering satisfying depth and richness. The finish is smooth, rounded and lingering, making it a versatile Shiraz suited to a wide range of occasions.

Perfect alongside grilled sausages, barbecue meats, roast lamb, pizza, pasta or casual entertaining platters, the Vineyard 1913 Premium Selection Shiraz 2024 delivers classic South Australian Shiraz flavour with outstanding drinkability and broad appeal.
