Rocky Road
Shiraz
| This wine is a blend of two sites within the Margaret River region. The blocky lateritic Rocky Road site provides fruit with great flavour concentration and structural backbone. The sandier, clay soils of our Osmington site give lighter, more elegant fruit with excellent aromatic lift and vitality. Combined, we get firmness with restraint and elegance with integrity. Vineyard management takes a back to basics approach at McHenry Hohnen embracing sustainable 'Old School' practices that were used before the rise of intense agriculture. | |

| Tasting note |
Medium bodied with gentle, ripe tannins and a rounded finish. The fruit is rich and earthy with rounded plum and bramble fruit supported by farmyardy characters and herbal hints.

94 Points, James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2015'Good hue; a complex blend of black fruits, spice, licorice and mocha is supported by excellent tannins on the medium to full-bodied palate. Will repay medium-term cellaring.' |
