Pepper Tree Shiraz 2018

For thirty years Pepper Tree has been a beacon for quality wine in the heart of Hunter wine country. Founded in 1991 it continues to flourish as one of the stalwart wine companies of the region. Pepper Tree started with a focus on grapes from the Hunter Valley but today the roots run deep for owner John Davis with vineyard sites in four premium wine growing regions across Australia.

Almost three decades on, Head Winemaker, Gwyn Olsen is making consistently great wines, drawing on these vineyards situated in the Hunter and Orange in NSW to prized patches of soil in Coonawarra and Wrattonbully in South Australia. You could say it’s the best of four worlds.

Blended from our two cool climate regions of Wrattonbully and Orange, this Shiraz is a focus on style and expression. Vibrant florals and hints of pepper fill the nose. The palate is layered with juicy red fruits, complex spice notes and a great acid line showcasing the cool climate style. The tannins are ripe providing a wine that is long and rich, ready to drink now. - Head Winemaker, Gwyn Olsen
