Hartenberg "The Stork" Shiraz 2016 [P 4.5]

4.5 stars Platter

The Stork Shiraz honours the late Ken Mackenzie, pilot, businessman,

farmer and benefactor. Stork was Ken’s Second World War nickname (as

he was tall with long thin legs and a Spitfire pilot) and Shiraz was his

preferred red wine.

This limited volume wine represents a vineyard selection of Shiraz from a

specific site that is planted solely on clay–rich "terra rossa" type soils.

The vineyard ripens a full month later than our Gravel Hill Shiraz site.

TASTING NOTES:

Voluptuous aromas of ripe dark and red fruit combine with spicy

notes on the bouquet. The palate shows an abundance of berry

flavours, smooth, silky tannins and a bold finish.
