95 Points - Jeni Port | Last Stocks
Located on the western slopes of Mt Camel Range, Tellurian has emerged as one of the standout producers of the Heathcote wine region.
The 2019 Tellurian Tranter Shiraz is another high quality example of Heathcote Shiraz, delivering a wonderfully approachable red wine with excellent weight, some lovely bright red fruit and dark plum flavours. The silky mouthfeel is supported by some soft, high quality tannins, with the impressively long finish lingering in the mouth.
"95 Points. Destemmed and crushed fruit with some small parcels of whole berries, fermented in stainless steel and concrete, left 10–16 days on skins, matured 19 months in French oak. Another strong, composed, concentrated Tranter shiraz from what was an extended vintage which allowed for extra hang time. A mighty tidy shiraz, in striking deep purple hues with lifted aromatics melding with black berries, licorice, chocolate and Aussie bush notes. Taut, fine tannins are in perfect balance. 14.6% alc.
