Bright, deep garnet. Intense, rich red and black fruits, overlayed with dried florals and spice. A layered, generous wine with bounds of aromatic florals and spice, luscious red and black fruits paired with finely structured tannins and mouthwatering acidity.
The 2017 Billi Billi Shiraz is sourced from a selection of premium cool climate vineyards throughout Victoria; predominantly the Grampians including a portion from the Mount Langi Ghiran vineyards, home of the iconic Langi Shiraz. The 2017 vintage delivered ideal growing conditions with a long dry summer and cool nights.
93 Point Rated - James Halliday Wine Companion
"The fragrant, floral red fruits and spice and pepper on the bouquet are joined by black pepper and licorice on the palate. Hard to resist at this price, very hard. No patience is required, it is ready now.""
91 Point Rated - James Suckling
"A bright and ripe shiraz that has abundant, pepper-laced blackberry and plum aromas with a fresh, zesty andintense core of fine and fresh tannin."
Huon Hooke - The Real Review
"Deepish red colour with a trace of purple, the bouquet shy, reserved, gently meaty-reductive and the palate lean and angular, with a hint of sweetness countered by firm, grippy tannins and acidity."
Christa Pickard - Wine Enthuasist Magazine
"This cherry-hued cool-climate Shiraz takes awhile to open in glass, but with time it rewards, with aromas of earthy spice, warm stone minerals and black-cherry fruit. The palate is equally as tightly wound, with powerful dusty tannins, lifted acidity and tangy fruit. This needs plenty of air or another year or two in bottle, but it nevertheless offers excellent value for money."
Decanter World Wine Awards
"Earthy, spiced baked plum aromas, jammy black cherry and sweet oak palate."
