NOON Reserve Shiraz Bottle/st - VEG/VGN

Description

Noon Winery is a small, family-owned winery, producing earth-shattering red wines! Drew and his wife Raegan – gentle, considered people – took over the family winery in 1996. Their quiet respect for the land they nurture and the vines they tend, is reflected in their wine-making style – gloriously powerful wines with minimal processing. The property has 4.2ha of estate-grown bush vine Grenache vineyards planted in 1934 (the Home Block) and 1943 (BJ’s Block), with plantings in 1999 of a further 1.5ha, mostly Graciano. The Shiraz and Cabernet vineyards are grower-owned by friends, the Borrett Family, in Langhorne Creek – tiny vineyards planted in 1962 and 1972 respectively. Production at Noon is only 3000 cases – in a good year – mostly sold to their loyal Australian customers.

The Noon Reserve Shiraz is a full bodied, generously flavoured wine. If you usually prefer white wines or more elegant, light-medium bodied reds then this may not be the wine for you. It may be drunk young but will certainly reward cellaring.
