2024 Mayor's Vineyard Shiraz

Growing Conditions

The 2024 growing season commenced with a relatively dry winter, followed by cool wet conditions up until Christmas. Summer and Autumn were dry and warmer than average. The ripening conditions were ideal, with low disease pressure producing clean fruit with exceptional flavour.

Vineyard

Situated at just over 500m in altitude, the vines of The Mayors Vineyard, in the North East of the Clare Valley provide the fruit for this single vineyard wine. The 54 year old vines were hand harvested and individual blocks kept separate through vinification. The vineyards soils of red loam are dotted with slate and have long produced Shiraz displaying a wonderful balance between savoury aspects and fruit purity.
