A plump and fruity front palate, fine but solid tannic structure, tight acidity when young adding length and complexity built from pepper, spices and pulled together by smart oak.
Vinification Note:
Cliff Edge is about synergies. Cliff Edge is born of careful vineyard selection and the forming of relationships with our growers to allow the focus to be on quality viticulture. Distinctive parcels of Shiraz from all corners of the Grampians are blended to create a wine that is enhanced by its individual components and therefore greater as a whole. Complementary elements work together to build a wine with complexity and regional character, this is cool climate Shiraz expressing the great elements of the region.
