Hewitson Ned & Henry's Shiraz 2022

Hewitson Ned & Henry's Shiraz 2022

Barossa Valley, South Australia. Very, deep red with a purple hue. The aroma is distinctively Barossa Valley: black and red, ripe fruits with a solid, concentrated core. The seamless class of perfectly rip fruit and French oak is a stand-out here. The palate structure of Ned and Henry's delivers in every aspect of the brief.

Description
A very good friend of mine challenged me to produce a traditional, fullbodied Barossa Valley wine with the only criteria that it could be drunk young at lunch or dinner and did not stray from my fundamental wine making philosophies i.e. French oak, fine‐grained tannins, balance, clear fruit expression etc! Those who know me well know that I just love a good challenge! Thus Ned & Henry's Barossa Valley was born.

Superbly sited vineyards grown on red soil over limestone, the classic terra rossa, provide the fruit for Ned & Henry's. These vineyards are traditionally grown, low‐cropped and produce the necessary flavours and tannins for our wine. After traditional fermentation the wine is pressed into quality French barriques, where the wine finishes fermentation and malo‐lactic fermentation. The wine matures in these barrels for a total of about fifteen months before racking. While the base wine has always been Shiraz, each year I have blended a small proportion of Mourvèdre with the Shiraz, which accentuates the fruit and delivers a greater complexity.
