Region & Terroir

South Eastern Australia, Australia

Yellow Tail Shiraz uses broad South Eastern Australia sourcing to deliver a consistent, fruit-forward expression. Warm inland fruit gives softness, color, and ripe berry concentration.

Grape Varieties

Shiraz

Australian Shiraz is known for blackberry, plum, pepper, chocolate, and generous texture. In this style, the grape's plush fruit and low-roughness tannins are the main attraction.

Soil & Vinification

Fruit comes from a range of warm sites and soil types rather than one single terroir. Controlled fermentation and oak seasoning are used to keep the wine smooth, spicy, and immediately drinkable.
