2019 Saperavi
This single vineyard Strangebird™ delivers an intense bouquet—hints of licorice and berries and a bold dry palate of savoury blue fruits with hints of cherry and plum. The finish is smooth with lingering French oak. Saperavi hails from the Republic of Georgia, where they have been making wine for more than 8000 years.

2018 Opera Block Shiraz – 50th Anniversary Edition
Rare limited edition Shiraz from our oldest vines expressing 2018’s outstanding vintage.
Master of Wine Peter Scudamore-Smith: Ballandean Estate’s 2018 Opera Block Shiraz is a sophisticated example of cool climate Shiraz. This 50th vintage has tannins of silk, a caressing texture, lovely length of black fruits, oak spice, spotlessly woven flavours and a palate-pleasing light to medium body. Drink now in that fresh zone of vibrant joy aged 2 to 5 years, or enjoy at its maturing peaks of 15 to 25-plus years.
