Parishes Shiraz
Parishes celebrates the heritage of our pre-eminent Australian wine regions, born from grape -growing communities as flavoursome as the wine they produce.
Tasting Notes
Ideal growing conditions in Langhorne Creek and Barossa produce complementary flavours. This full-bodied wine displays a plush full palate of blueberry dark chocolate and spice. With 12 months oak barrel maturation this leads to smooth velvety tannins and a long finish.

Vintage 2021: Another superb Shiraz from one of my favourite regions, and from a cracking vintage. The wine spent a year maturing in oak.
Near opaque purple in colour, this is dense, rich and powerful. Full throttle fruit and flavour here. Intense and generous, even by Langhorne Creek standards.
Loads of chocolate are the immediate impression, with black fruits, aniseed and soy. Hints of cloves. Fine silky tannins. The palate exudes chocolate, along with mocha and mulberries. Supple and rich texture with really good length and balance. Love it. Will provide pleasure for at least a decade.

Vintage 2021: Put the weight and power of the Barossa with the supple drinkability of Langhorne Creek and you have something special like this thoroughly beautiful and delicious shiraz. Dark plummy fruits with a lift of subtle mint. A delightfully pretty palate with fine tannins and well applied oak sitting comfortably with the fruit. Nice dark chocolate and blue fruit mix further enhances an engaging palate. It’s medium to full bodied and absolutely engaging.
