Critique Review
“A fantastic bright purple-red colour is immediately enticing. Florals, dark plums, cocoa and cedary oak all add to the enjoyment. Hovering around medium bodied with grainy, slightly drying tannins somewhat tempered by the core of sweet fruit. This is another very good example of shiraz from Margs.”

Vineyard Info
A blend of Stella Bella’s southern Margaret River vineyards. A multiple personality wine, it represents the uniqueness of each vineyard site while maintaining a defined Stella Bella style. Vintage 2019 - The 2019 vintage will be remembered for the cool conditions from budburst which continued over the ripening period. This is perfect for a spicy cool climate Shiraz. The longer wait for the fruit to ripen resulted in some super fragrant and aromatic berry fruit driven wines with refreshing natural acidity.
