The Chockstone wines are made by AT Richardson; who have established themselves as one of the star winemakers of Victoria's famed Grampians wine regions. The region's suitability to the varieties, it's no surprise Riesling and Shiraz are always the standouts among the Chockstone wines.
The 2021 Chockstone Grampians Shiraz is another stunning Grampians Shiraz loaded with intense blackberry and chocolate flavours combined with black pepper, subtle spice and a soft, velvety mouthfeel. A delicious Grampians Shiraz that delivers sensational value for money drinking.
"95 Points. This is where the fun starts. Silken texture, wild flings of spice, sweet/ripe cherry-plum fruit flavour and a long finish, replete with roasted nut, ripe fruit and savoury nuances. Grade A Grampians shiraz, open, sweet-fruited and accessible but with a lot going besides. $28. 14.5% alc. Drink by: 2030"- Campbell Mattinson, winecompanion.com.au.
