Kalleske Johann Georg Shiraz - Review

A nice review of our 2009 Kalleske Johann Georg Shiraz from Campbell Mattinson at 'The Wine Front'



94 Points
"A single vineyard wine, made from vines that were planted in 1875. Grown biodynamically too. Controlled might and power. Dark pitch of weighty, blackberried fruit. Sweet raisins, Christmas cake, malt, toast and raspberry. Has both a brightness and a heaviness. A sensation of both galore-is-more, and tight control. Fruity and flavoursome on the finish. Warm with alcohol but not over the top. Length, polish, and more.”

Hand-picking Johann Georg Shiraz - 2011

Just a quick update to let you know things have been moving along nicely as the sounds, smells and colours of vintage consume the winery.

Below are a few photo's of the family hand-picking the Johann Georg Shiraz, last Thursday, April 7th. The vines here were planted in 1875.
