Winery/Brand: Jasper Hill

 

A vintage showing better growing conditions than the last few drought affected ones. Not as massive as say the ’03, yet with all of the great balance and finesse that Georgia’s is known for, including the sweet, spicy fruit flavours and viscous palate. Beautiful magenta tone. Will cellar for ten years, maybe more, but you can drink from now onwards.
Ron Laughton, Jasper Hill

 

 

The Story

The un-irrigated, low vigour Georgia's Paddock is planted with 12 hectares of Shiraz. After vinification the wine is matured for 14 months in new (around 20%) and old French and American oak. Georgia's Paddock is packaged with a red label, a reminder of a devastating bush fire in 1987.
