The Wilson Vineyard Handplunge Primitivo Shiraz, artisanally crafted at Wilson Vineyard in Clare Valley, South Australia, this 50:50 Primitivo Shiraz blend is named for its gentle hand plunged fermentation in 1-tonne open fermenters, then matured in 100 % French oak barriques. It exudes rich aromas of cherry-ripe fruit, silky vanilla pods, and warming spice. The palate delivers luxurious tannins, plush cherry and spice layers, all wrapped in a richly coloured, aromatic expression with balanced oak integration. The 2016 vintage scored 91/100, showing lifted liquorice, black cherry and vanillin-cedar with fine-grained tannins and spicy raisin notes. A compelling Clare Valley red, offering both elegance and cellar-worthy depth.
