2007 Jasper Hill Emily's Paddock Shiraz Cabernet Franc 750ml

Emily's Paddock is not only wonderful upon release, this wine will age gracefully over many years in the good cellar. This red blend is mostly Shiraz - with a defining splash of Cabernet Franc. A lot has been made over the years of the “terroir” difference between Jasper Hill Emily’s and Georgia’s, but it’s the Cabernet franc that really differentiates them. Wonderfully fragrant and lifted on the nose. Region: Heathcote, Victoria, Australia Varieties: Shiraz (95%), Cabernet Franc (5%) Closure: Cork Alc/Vol: 15% Drinking Window: 2010-2032 Jasper Hill's Shiraz-based wines are renowned for their superb qualities. With an emphasis on minimal intervention in the vineyard through the use of organic/biodynamic principles, the terroir or earth character of the individual paddock expresses itself fully in the balance, complexity and flavour of this great wine. "Jasper Hill is largely responsible for bringing fame to what many believe will become one of Australia’s classic wine regions. Jasper Hill’s Shiraz based wines...are simply superb."
