The Lane Block 14 Basket Press Shiraz
The holy grail of winemaking is to portray site above variety, season and maker. By this standard, this is one of the finest Adelaide Hills shirazes of the modern era. Resonating with this remarkable vineyard, expressing its moods with unprecedented clarity in mineral tannins and classic Adelaide Hills hints of rain on granite. Great concentration, black cherry, Satsuma plum skin, anise, black pepper; never more than medium-bodied.
