Keith Tulloch The Kester Shiraz is a profound, deeply structured red wine crafted as a heartfelt homage to the winemaker's ancestors. Sourced entirely from centenarian vines planted in the historic soils of the Hunter Valley, this exceptional Shiraz captures the perfect intersection of power and cool-climate elegance. It represents a monumental, highly collectible bottling from one of Australia’s premier family-owned estates, celebrating both heritage and masterful craftsmanship. Why You'll Love It This is Hunter Valley Shiraz at its absolute zenith, displaying an extraordinary depth of flavour that only centenarian, dry-farmed vines can deliver. Masterfully combining modern precision with historic winemaking techniques, Keith Tulloch has created a red with incredible cellar potential that remains wonderfully approachably and luxurious. The inclusion of a tiny touch of Viognier and traditional hand-plunging produces an incredibly polished, complex palate that stands as a benchmark for premium Australian wine. Vineyard & Production The grapes are hand-harvested from low-yielding, dry-farmed vineyards boasting vines over a century old. Drawing inspiration from his time in the Rhône Valley, specifically working with the legendary Hermitage vineyards of Jaboulet, Keith co-ferments the Shiraz with a trace of Viognier in open vats for four weeks. Regular hand-plunging is employed to gently extract structural tannins and aromatic complexity. The wine is then matured for 20 months in fine French oak barriques, providing a velvety, integrated support that enhances the wine's incredible length. Tasting Notes Pouring a deep, dense ruby, this Shiraz opens with a heady, complex bouquet of jaffa orange and fresh orange blossom, layered over rich concentrated blackcurrant, anise, and wild blackberry. As the wine breathes, subtle hints of juniper and crushed wild herbs begin to emerge. The palate is muscular and beautifully structured, dominated by intense flavours of black cherry,
