Sanguine Estate Progeny Shiraz 2022 Heathcote - 12 Bottles

WINERY INFORMATION

Located in Heathcote, Victoria, described by James Halliday as the birthplace of the best Shiraz in Australia, Sanguine Estate was founded in 1997. The founders Linda and Tony Hunter envisioned a boutique, family run vineyard where passion, quality, and energy reflected in the produced wine. Shiraz grows on 50 acres of the 55-acre vineyard, while the rest of the area, affectionately called the fruit salad block, contains eight other varieties. These are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Tempranillo, Chardonnay, Viognier and a variety unknown in Australia.

TASTING NOTES

Sanguine Estate Progeny Shiraz is a deep red coloured wine displaying dark purple highlights along the edges. The fragrant nose is intensely perfumed with blackberry and blue fruit aromas, with savoury nuances of spice, dry herb, rare meats and black pepper evident in the backdrop. Fine tannins integrate with the rich and juicy palate to end this delightful Shiraz with a long and balanced finish. This tempting red wine tastes fantastic with peppered rib eye and a roasted field mushroom.
