Winemaker Comments
The 22nd bottling of the Wade Block 2 from McLaren Flat. Grown in deep sand, this is an amazing vineyard that is now 30 years of age. It is planted with cuttings sourced from a very old local vineyard and grown on its own roots. Again, very distinctive and complex, easily qualifying it for the ‘Single Vineyard’ label. An outstanding season in McLaren Vale, with a return to average yields following several drought seasons. Average rainfall throughout the growing season with an ideal ripening period resulted in near-perfect Shiraz at harvest. Wonderful ripe fruit characters balanced by fine, long tannins.
Food Pairing
Pairs well with beef dishes.
Drink
Drinking well now but will reward with medium to long term cellaring.
