Inaugural Release of Our 'Fort' Shiraz

Rich. Bold. Unforgettable.

Our first-ever release of ‘Fort’ Shiraz is a fortified wine that brings depth and character to every glass. Infused with premium Brandy spirit, it showcases ripe dark fruit aromas, layered complexity, and a long, intense finish.

Perfectly suited for slow sipping or pairing with a rich cheese board—blue cheese, aged cheddar, or creamy brie complement its bold profile beautifully.

Cellar for 10+ years. 

The dry, mild climate of Heathcote provides ideal conditions for growing shiraz. The fruit for this wine comes from our family vineyard, planted in 1999 on the fmous strip of 500 million year old cambrian soil that defines the heart of the region. 

The vineyard was certified organic in 2021.

Winemaker Notes
Our inaugural Fortified Shiraz is crafted from organically grown grapes sourced from our family vineyard in Heathcote, planted in 1999 on ancient 500-million-year-old Cambrian soils. The region’s dry, mild climate allows the fruit to develop remarkable concentration, and when the alcohol and sugar are at desired levels, the fermentation is arrested by the addition of a selected brandy spirit to enhance its richness and ageing potential, promising an evolution of complexity over 10+ years in the cellar.
Tasting Notes
This wine offers rich aromas of dark berries and plum, with the brandy spirit adding warmth and complexity. The palate is full-bodied and smooth, showcasing ripe fruit flavours balanced by velvety tannins. A long, intense finish leaves lingering notes of dark fruit and spice.
