Jasper Hill Georgia's Paddock Shiraz 2025

Iconic Heathcote terroir meets seamless power and vibrant structural balance. The Jasper Hill Georgia's Paddock Shiraz 2025 stands as an benchmark expression of dry-grown Shiraz from the historic Cambrian soils of Heathcote. Harvested from low-yielding, un-grafted vines planted on steep hillsides in 1975, this site produces grapes of intense regional identity and exceptional purity. Managed without synthetic chemicals or irrigation, the vineyard forces roots deep into ancient, iron-rich red soil, imparting a mineral focus and natural freshness to the fruit. The 2025 vintage captures the classic signature of Georgia's Paddock—combining deep concentration and structural grace without relying on heavy oak. Winemaking remains strictly minimal intervention, allowing the true nature of the vintage and site to emerge. Fermentation occurs naturally with indigenous yeasts in open concrete vats before basket pressing and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is rich and multi-layered, displaying vibrant dark plums, sweet red berries, and exotic mixed spices underpinned by fine, chalky tannins and bright natural acidity. Highly enjoyable upon release, it possesses the balance and concentration required to cellar comfortably for up to two decades. Tasting Notes NOSE – Lifted, aromatic and complex Vibrant red berries, dark plum, cracked pepper, mocha, and a hint of dusty red earth. PALATE – Concentrated, supple and energetic Rich red cherry, dark chocolate, and layered baking spices carried by chalky, fine-grained tannins. FINISH – Long, persistent and finely structured Lingering nuances of mocha, dark berry fruit, and graphite with a clean, mineral-driven conclusion. Reviews & Accolades “The palate is firmly framed yet layered with silky tannins and class, leading to a long, decadent yet restrained finish. Excellent now but will reward with cellaring. Drink or hold.” — Ryan Montgomery, JamesSuckling.com, 99 Points Finer Details: Brand - Jasper Hill Style - Red Wine Varietal - Shiraz Country - Australia State - Victoria Region - Heathcote Vintage - 2025 ABV - 15.5% Size - 750ml Certification - Biodynamic
