Yangarra Kings Wood Shiraz 2022

Our Verdict

’"22 was a cool year that produced some reticent but excellent grenache, while shiraz seemed to sail through untroubled. This is an infant, of course, but there’s a ready appeal not always seen at this stage, a meshing of red, blue and black fruits – ripe raspberry, blackberry, blueberry, tart boysenberry, red plum, black olive – with an overlay of baking spices, iodine, coffee grounds and beef bouillon. And iron, yes. It’s on the label. In the ground. In the wine. Here, the wine benefits from that soil transfer being elegant, filigreed, not rugged. It needs a little time to be its best, but it’s a superb release.” 97 Points -  Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion

"Deep, bright purple colour leads into a slightly subdued but rich nose of dark and red fruits, blackberry uppermost, with charcoal, mixed spice and sweet floral high-notes. The wine is tremendously deep and concentrated on the palate but at the same time elegant and spritely. There are flecks of dark chocolate and bitumen, too. The wine is long and the tannins supple and fine, resulting in a remarkably more-ish finish—it drinks so well now, yet the wine is destined for a long future." 97 Points -  Huon Hooke, The Real Review

“The expressive 2022 Shiraz Ironheart is rich yet measured with a powerfully expressive core of bloody ferrous aromas lifted by dark earth and crushed spice tones. There is a finer side—touches of dried violet, white pepper and coal fire—with significant underlying tension as it tightens up on the long, enthralling close.” 96 Points -  Angus Hughson, Vinous
