Description
Velvety and aromatic, the Heysen Shiraz is one of Rolf Binder's top Shiraz wines and was first released in 1989. It is made from dry grown Shiraz planted in sandy soils with a varying amount of 1-4% Cabernet Sauvignon, depending on the vintage. Named after the 1,200 kilometer Heysen Trail which borders the Rolf Binder ‘Chri-Ro’ estate.
"While all the parcels of a rich, ripe Barossa shiraz are strutting their stuff, they've come together well to create a balanced wine. Full-bodied, ripe, plump tannins and a freshness overall... 95pts" (Halliday).
