Heartland Shiraz 75cl
Fast Delivery
to the UK and Ireland
Heartland is the place between the vines that offers the best view of the gum trees. We produce wines that remain true to the recognized Australian style, and the cool climate of Langhorne Creek. Heartland Shiraz is a pure expression of Australia’s most iconic variety.
The dark colour preempts a wine of dense, layered black fruit. The aromas of anise and cracked pepper are enveloped in classic blackberry. The glass coating texture gives way to freshness on the finish resulting in a fine balance. The structure imparted by oak and skin contact integrates well with the bright, but intense fruit.
The Shiraz was de-stemmed, crushed and pumped over twice a day for ten days. The wine matured for 12 months in oak prior to bottling. Grapes normally reserved for our Directors’ Cut Shiraz have been used in this vintage of Heartland Shiraz. We hope you will agree this is the best Heartland Shiraz we have made.

Heartland Shiraz, Langhorne Creek, South Australia
Heartland is the place between the vines that offers the best view of the gum trees. We produce wines that remain true to the recognised Australian
style, and the cool climate of Langhorne Creek. Heartland Shiraz is a pure expression of Australia’s most iconic variety.
Region: Langhorne Creek
Soil: Sandy loamVariety: Shiraz
Tasting Notes:
The deep ruby colour foreshadows aromas of black currants and raspberry compote. These notes are echoed on the palate and complimented by dark chocolate and a dusting of nutmeg. The intensity of the fruit sits in perfect balance with the texture of the wine.
Vinification:
The Shiraz was de-stemmed, crushed and pumped over twice a day for ten days. The wine matured for 12 months in oak prior to bottling. Grapes normally reserved for our Directors’ Cut Shiraz have been used in this vintage of Heartland Shiraz. We hope you will agree this is the best Heartland Shiraz we have made.
2014 Vintage:
2014 followed the classic road of a late vintage accompanying a late Easter. Deep soil moisture from a traditional winter flood bolstered us against the warm summer days, as did the cooling Langhorne Creek winds. We were spared the late February rains that harried other regions in South Australia.

Refund Policy:
Very occasionally, a wine may suffer from cork taint, the unpleasant effects of a faulty closure. Cork taint is more common in bottles with a traditional cork closure, and is recognisable by a damp, rotten wood or rotten cardboard smell. It’s often quite pungent, and immediately detectable when opening a bottle for the first time. If you get a bottle you think is tainted, contact us and we’ll replace the bottle for free within 48 hours or give you a full refund – whichever you prefer.
