James Haselgrove 2019 McLaren Vale Futures Shiraz

Our family’s flagship presents a lover of cellared wine the opportunity to get the wine prior to release as an indent or ‘futures’. Our Futures Shiraz was first made in 1984 as a rich, full bodied Shiraz wine style that is very suitable for cellaring yet maintains drinkability. This 2019 wine is the 28th release. Fruit for this vintage again comes from a single vineyard planted in 1910 in McLaren Flat, grown by our friend Pino! Rich, concentrated fruit was handpicked then open fermented before being put to only seasoned oak barrels to finish fermentation and then mature for 28 months. Barrel selection is made for site expression. This wine has long term potential which will augment the savoury fruit characters expressed by this terroir in McLaren Vale. As we want this wine to mature gracefully in the bottle we have decided to use DIAM cork for quality cellaring that will still allow the wine to slowly develop complexity and regional nuances. In this vintage we have changed the glass used to ‘Made in Australia’ and as such looks slightly different.

Per Bottle 750 ml

Released November 1st 2021
