Indulge in the opulence of Wild Duck Creek Shiraz Reserve 2019, a 750ml icon from Heathcote, Victoria. Crafted from the estate’s Springflat vineyard with select bunch picks, this Shiraz is made with meticulous care—hard cane pruning, shoot thinning, and up to 50% whole bunches in the ferment to enhance texture. Matured for 23 months in 100% new French oak barriques, it boasts a deep, glass-staining red-purple hue. The bouquet is savoury and oaky, with coconut, toasty barrel, mocha, and espresso notes, layered over dense black fruit. The palate is massive yet balanced, with ripe, supple tannins, concentrated oak-infused flavors, and a brandied prune aftertaste, finishing with a powerful, long linger. A bold expression of Heathcote’s terroir, this Shiraz pairs beautifully with beef or venison and offers 20+ years of cellaring potential. A collector’s treasure from a small family winery.
