Tasting Notes:

The Chain of Ponds Pilot Block Adelaide Shiraz 2020 shines with a deep dark plum red color, tinged with a slight purple hue. On the nose, the wine reveals an enticing mix of ripe plums, blackcurrant, and dark cherries, complemented by an overlay of spicy cinnamon and baking spices. Subtle tones of vanilla and mocha lift the bouquet, adding layers of complexity.

On the palate, this Shiraz is rich and full-bodied, dominated by blackcurrant, with additional notes of dark plum, blackberry, and a touch of dark chocolate. A delicate floral lift of violet balances the fruit intensity. The wine showcases good balanced acidity and smooth, velvety tannins, which are complemented by a spicy oak backbone that adds further complexity. The finish is long and generous, with an underlying savory spice character that lingers, perfectly harmonizing with the wine’s primary fruit characters.

This exceptional Shiraz is a 90-point rated wine by both Ray Jordan of Wine Pilot and Sam Kim of Wine Orbit. Crafted by trophy-winning winemaker Greg Clack, Chain of Ponds continues to produce award-winning wines from the Adelaide Hills region.

Accolades & Awards:

90 Point Rated - Ray Jordan Wine Pilot

"A vibrant and lively fruit dominant shiraz from the Adelaide Hills. Loads of plummy black cherry aromas with a little peppery addition. The palate is soft and warm with rich fruit flavours balanced with a little oak and a lift of black pepper. It’s soft and supple and ideal in the short term."
