Paradigm Hill Col's Block Shiraz

Paradigm Hill Col's Block Shiraz is a striking cool-climate Shiraz that showcases the elegance, complexity and longevity possible from the Mornington Peninsula.

Slow-ripening fruit harvested late into autumn delivers a refined and intensely aromatic style, far removed from the heavier expressions often associated with Australian Shiraz. Matured for 18 months in barrel and further aged in bottle before release, the wine has developed remarkable harmony and depth.

The bouquet is layered and captivating, with enticing spice, toasty oak and mocha notes complemented by hints of tobacco leaf, dark olive, charcuterie and ripe dark stone fruits. These savoury and fruit-driven elements intertwine seamlessly, creating a wine of impressive complexity.

The palate is elegant yet concentrated, offering finely detailed dark fruit flavours framed by silky, enveloping tannins. Excellent balance and integration carry through to a long, persistent finish marked by spice, savoury nuance and refined oak influence.

Sophisticated, food-friendly and beautifully poised, Col’s Block Shiraz is a compelling example of cool-climate Australian Shiraz, offering immediate enjoyment while rewarding careful cellaring for 15 years or more.
