De Iuliis Limited Release Shiraz 2017
Award-winning and handcrafted, this small collection of iconic Hunter Valley wine styles is a selection of the best fruit from the most exceptional vintages. Less than 250 cases are produced and each bottle is individually numbered. The production of this wine is limited to 250 dozen. In 2017 we selected the best barrels from a number of sites, in an effort to produce a wine that will not only drink well in its youth but hopefully, will be a classic after a few years in the cellar. Whilst still being in the traditional Hunter medium-bodied style, this wine shows a significant depth of fruit and weight that will hold it in good stead for future years. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Gold 95pts—James Halliday Australian Wine Companion 2021
Strong hard cheeses especially cheddar, Kangaroo, big beefy stews.
Intense spice and pepper on the nose combine with rich berry aromas.
Rich fruit flavours of black cherries combine with firm tannins to provide a medium-bodied style with great length on the palate. A well-balanced wine, consistent with the classic Hunter Valley style of Shiraz.
