Amongst the patchwork of Wynns vineyards on the famed terra rossa strip, one special area is V&A Lane. A long, straight road surveyed in 1851 which was the old district boundary between the historical electorates of Victoria and Albert. The mature Shiraz vineyards along V&A Lane ripen early and are among the first picked each season. The resulting wines have a modern appeal being fresh and spicy, yet still maintaining the succulent and silky palate structure of a Shiraz that can proudly take its place on the world stage.
The purpose of V&A Lane Shiraz is to showcase a contrasting wine style from one of our most beloved grape varieties. A purposely early harvest to highlight a fresh red fruit spectrum, naturally lower alcohol, whole bunch inclusion, wild ferments, and the use of larger oak for maturation are just some of the techniques employed to make these beautiful food friendly wines.

Lifted spice and floral aromas sit above blackcurrant and macerated dark cherries. The oak is balanced and in tune with the nose's bright fruit aromas.
An engaging palate of red berries, plum & chocolate flavours support stylish spicy oak. There are bountiful but soft tannins coating the palate, leaving rich, multi-layered flavours in the mouth. This is a textural, deep Shiraz with seductively sweet fruit.The result is a beautifully balanced wine and a fitting tribute to the vineyards of V & A Lane.

"This is a seriously lovely wine, with silky line and length to the vivid red fruit flavours. The oak (20 months; 50% new French, 15% new American) is already integrated, and does not dominate the fruit. 96 Points."
