A beautiful rich, plush full bodied McLaren Vale Shiraz. Trial sentence. I can continue. Well performed on the Australian Show Circuit. Even though Innocent Bystander is based in the Yarra Valley the fruit for this Cuvée came from the Gateway biodynamic vineyard in McLaren Vale. Supple and delicious with that spicy overlay and soft tannins.

May 28th, 2026Dark dense Ruby in colour - impenetrable - almost black. Intense black fruits - black currant with a note of creosote. Rich and sumptuous on the full bodied palate, approaching blockbuster. A style of Shiraz that McLaren Vale does so well. Soft smooth pliant tannins. Great length and persistence. A good cooler weather red. Made by Steve Flamsteed of Giant Steps fame.
