2006 | Geoff Merril | Henley Shiraz

There's a real freshness to the aroma upon opening, which becomes more and
more sophisticated with every minute in the glass. Black pepper, herbs, clove
and stewed plums come forward, then they make way for the complex
characters that only come with age. Dark soy, leather, chocolate and roast
beef gravy.

Varietal Sangiovese and Riesling wines also feature.The business owns Graymoor vineyard in Coonawarra, and Pimpala Vineyard and Wickham Downs in McLaren Vale. Pimpala Vineyard is the four-acre (1.6-hectare) suburban plot at the Mount Hurtle winery at Woodcroft, metropolitan Adelaide.The Mount Hurtle winery was founded in the late 1890s when it was part of a large estate with 60 hectares (150 acres) of vines. However, it fell into disrepair in the 1940s and was mainly used as stables. Geoff Merrill and his team spent two years restoring the facility in the mid 1990s. A barrell maturation cellar was added in 1998.
