This wine was first released in 1994, in honour of Stuart Blackwell, winemaker for more than three decades and a tireless contributor to the St Hallett story. The fruit is sourced predominately from vineyards planted in the parishes of Ebenezer, Greenock and Moppa Hills with the red-brown clay soils creating wines with hallmark characteristics of black plum, cherries and dark chocolate.
Aroma: A bright bouquet with layers of blackberry, dark chocolate and hints of vanilla.
The Palate: A full-bodied wine with excellent framework and a multitude of layers. Instantly apparent are blackberry and black cherry fruit with hints of dark chocolate and vanilla characters laying over top. A very decadent and opulent wine with a balanced palate, excellent structure and refined texture.
