2021 Shiraz
The Ottelia 2021 Shiraz is an elegant, medium bodied expression of Coonawarra Shiraz, capturing and highlighting the cool climate elements not always seen in the traditional Coonawarra styles.
Fruit is sourced from vineyards on the western side of the region, grown on a darker, sandier soil profile than the terra rossa Coonawarra is most well known for.

Reviews
"Cherry plum and red licorice flavours wrapped in smoky oak and sweet spice. Neat and generous at once. The flow of flavour here, the fine-fingered tannin, the balance... everything is in a good place."
