Description and specs
The 1888 O'Keefe Trail Heathcote Shiraz 2020 pays homage to the pioneering spirit of Andrew O'Keefe, whose locomotive pulled the first passenger train through Heathcote in 1888. Sourced from a single vineyard just outside the township of Heathcote, bordering the historic O'Keefe Rail Trail, this Shiraz is crafted from grapes grown in the region’s ancient Cambrian soils. The vineyard’s northeast-facing aspect with gentle slopes ensures ideal ripening conditions for the fruit.
In the glass, this Shiraz presents an inky black hue with a dusty red rim. It offers a complex bouquet of liquorice, black cherries, and peppery spice, complemented by subtle notes of vanilla oak and earthy undertones. On the palate, rich liquorice and blackberry flavours intertwine with vanillin oak, while pepper and spice add an extra layer of depth. The fine-grained tannins offer excellent structure, providing length and a smooth, enduring finish.
Awarded 95 points and a Gold Medal at Wine Showcase Magazine, this Shiraz is a bold and flavourful tribute to Heathcote’s rich history, offering both complexity and elegance. It pairs beautifully with roasted meats, grilled steaks, and strong, hard cheeses.
