Winemaker Notes

Georgia's Paddock Shiraz is a deep magenta color, a perfect indicator of its intensity on the palate. The 2006 vintage offers up scents of ripe, red fruit aromas complemented by earthy spice and pepper. The aromas follow through to the palate where silky, supple tannins and great natural acidity expand on the elegant finish. This wine will cellar beautifully for ten years or more.

Professional Ratings

  • 94
    The 2006 Shiraz Georgia’s Paddock was aged in 30% new oak. Aromas of pain grille, pencil lead, violets, blueberry, blackberry, and licorice lead to a full-bodied, structured, succulent Shiraz with plenty of spice and floral notes emerging on the palate. Give it 4-5 years of additional cellaring and drink it from 2013 to 2026.

    A big, black wine from Georgia's Paddock, this vintage shows its alcohol in warm flavors of mincemeat and oak. There's also a lot of floral character, with scents of forsythia and mint sparking off the wine's power. Needing age to show its best, this should evolve with another five years in bottle. For roast duck with tapenade.

Our aim is to make great wine, with the preservation of nature's flavours, complexities and balance in our wines by using minimal intervention in our vineyards and in the cellar - to allow the individual vineyard's "terroir" or sense of place to express itself.

Our wines are produced entirely on the estate using organic/biodynamic principles. We produce our own organic compost and have never used synthetic chemicals on either the vines or the soils, since our vineyards were planted in 1975.

Viticultural practices are as close to nature as we can get them: own rooted vines (ie. not grafted on to American rootstocks to confer Phylloxera resistance), no irrigation whatsoever, minimal tillage, natural inter-row mulching leading to broad bio-diversity, in turn giving depth and intensity to our wines. Only hand pruning of the vines and hand harvesting of the fruit can allow us the human connection to our living soil.

Minimal intervention is used during fermentation and maturation, allowing terroir or earth character of the individual paddock or plot to emerge in the wine. More importantly the grapes at harvest are flavour ripe, regardless of sugar ripeness.

Marked by an unmistakable deep purple hue and savory aromatics, Syrah makes an intense, powerful and often age-worthy red. Native to the Northern Rhône, Syrah achieves its maximum potential in the steep village of Hermitage and plays an important component in the Red Rhône Blends of the south, adding color and structure to Grenache and Mourvèdre. Syrah is the most widely planted grape of Australia and is important in California and Washington. Sommelier Secret—Such a synergy these three create together, the Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre trio often takes on the shorthand term, “GSM.”

Historically some of Australia’s most lucrative gold country, today Heathcote maintains its esteemed reputation as a source of country’s best red wines. The rolling countryside of ancient reddish brown soils bordered by mountain ranges that funnel cool air into the region during the growing season create some of Australia’s most deeply-hued and impressively layered Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon wines.
