2018 PUNT ROAD SHIRAZ – SOLD OUT

Our small team aims to create wines that reflect the heritage of our vineyard, and the creative energy of the Yarra Valley.

2018 is a very promising vintage, that may prove to be one of the best seen in the Yarra Valley in recent memory.
Plentiful frosty nights and heavy rains in winter delayed budburst, and spring continued in this mild (and wet) fashion. We had excellent canopies with slowly developing bunches.

The mild conditions persisted into January and February. Warm, sunny days with crisp nights and mornings. Perfect for slow ripening, delicate flavours and acid retention. There was no disease threat from rain, and we harvested at leisure.
