2021 Jimmy Watson Trophy Winner | Sold Out
Formerly known as The Halls Gap vineyard, Fallen Giants sits on one of the most revered sites in Victoria's famous Grampians region. With a focus on the signature varietals of the Grampians region, namely Shiraz, Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon, the wines of Fallen Giants rarely fail to impress and continue to attract plenty of fans.
This 2019 Fallen Giants Shiraz is another incredibly impressive example of Grampians Shiraz, which was a star performer at the 2021 Melbourne Royal Wine Awards; collecting the Jimmy Watson Trophy for Best Young Red of Show.
Beautifully structured, it hits the seemingly perfect balance between approachability and depth of flavour and complexity, with quality French oak playing a mere support role. A wine that's fast gaining a big following, this comes with our highest recommendation.
"93 Points. Heaps of spice and berried fruit and good things like that. Grampians shiraz to its back teeth. Pepper and woodsy spice notes aplenty. A lovely frame of well-integrated tannin. Length. All the ducks in a row. And the most deliciously earthen, tobacco-like accent riding over the top. Sure-footed. Yes. Lovely.
