The philosophy behind Black Label is simple: to take the year’s very best wines and weave them together into a synergistic whole, the resultant wine being greater than the sum of its parts. It’s about creating a wine with many layers of flavour in a complex composition of intense fruit characters, magnificent structure, a rich lustrous texture, long velvety tannins and a lingering palate. Harvested at optimum maturity and flavour, fruit from each vineyard was crushed, destemmed and fermented separately for seven to twelve days on skins.

Post-ferment, French oak barrels are sourced for aging for up to 12 months. The winery produces around 2000 cases annually of varietal and blended wines including Shiraz Mataro, Shiraz Malbec, and Cabernet Malbec. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVintage: 2010\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmslanding__image-desc\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"col-12 mb-0 px-0\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"small text-muted pb-1\"\u003eDrinking Window: 2022-2030\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"mb-4 ml-0\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47970619097403,"sku":"SK96420757","price":199.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/1540\/7675\/files\/WendoureeShirazMalbec750ml_1_303a257d-e6f0-420d-9c43-990961a6bb2a.png?v=1784156432"},{"product_id":"2013-penfolds-bin-389-cabernet-shiraz-750ml","title":"2013 Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz 750ml","description":"\u003ch4\u003eAwards, Ratings \u0026amp; Reviews\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96\/100\u003c\/strong\u003e — Bob Campbell · 2013 Vintage · Tasted: Feb 2016 · Drinking Window: 2016–2033\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95\/100\u003c\/strong\u003e — Jeremy Oliver · 2013 Vintage · Tasted: Jan 2014 · Drinking Window: 2033–2043\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93\/100\u003c\/strong\u003e — Falstaff · 2013 Vintage · Tasted: Sep 2015\u003cbr\u003e\n“Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung.

Due to quarantine laws in 1899, the use of existing state materials was mandated. Cultivated on the original pre-phylloxera vines, thriving in sandy loam and gravelly clay, this 16-hectare vineyard adopts biodynamic practices. The inaugural Claret was crafted by Cyril Henschke in 1952, and the family acquired the vineyard in 1974, dedicating efforts to enhance soil and vine health.
