Zip Line Shiraz

The zip line cable ride at our vineyard generates endless laughter for all generations of the family, and much like this wine, it’s a smooth ride to the end. Our Zip Line Shiraz is made from our Eden Valley single vineyard Shiraz grapes, plucked from a combination of our older vines with an average vine age of 50 years, to give depth and complexity, and from our younger vines planted in 2008, to give fruit freshness and vibrancy

Tasting note

Our 2021 Zipline Shiraz is created to be enjoyable upon release and this year is no exception.

The seasonal conditions were favourable for Eden Valley Shiraz, creating a bright ruby-coloured wine showing ripe fruit and subtle floral aromatics.

Restrained use of oak allows the fruit to lead the way, with ripe red and black fruits happily filling the palate in an effortlessly luscious style.

The pure ripe plum and black fruits are instantly mouth-filling, with soft chocolate and vanilla notes all wrapped up in excellent tannin grip – and length for miles

Food pairing ideas

This wine is built for rich and meaty dishes. Think osso bucco, bacon wrapped filet mignon with garlicky mushrooms, a chunky steak and onion pie, slow roasted lamb shoulder, or spaghetti bolognaise or meatballs.
