2004 -Lifted dark and intense blue and blackberry fruits dominate the bouquet with no overt jamminess and with some nuances of black pepper and spice. Ripe and rich in flavour, the mixed fruits and spices are apparent and are framed in rich gentle and concentrated tannins and integrated French and Hungarian oak. The sandy red soils contribute to the earthy notes, which contribute further richness and complexity to the wine. Amongst the intense fruit is lively integrated acidity. Together, all the components will integrate with some bottle age to produce a classical rich Bendigo Shiraz.
The grapes were totally destemmed and the whole berries were not crushed. The berries were transferred to an open stainless steel fermenters. The grapes were fermented for a period of 16 days with its’ natural yeast to express the “natural” fruit aromas and flavours.  The wine was basket pressed and transferred to new and used French and Hungarian oak for two years, then blended and bottled. The result is a balanced wine of lovely intense fruit flavours, oak tannins and acid with complex aromas and flavours. Although drinking well now, the wine will benefit from further aging.
 
What the critics think
“2004- Comes in what seems to be the biggest and heaviest bottle in captivity, but the wine is not dwarfed by it. This is distilled power, but without rough edges or extract; a seriously long palate and an equally long and distinguished future.” Rating 96 points
James Halliday – Australian Wine Companion - 2008
