Cranswick Estate Padthaway Shiraz / 2022 / 75cl

Cranswick Estate sources fruit from Padthaway’s reliably warm, limestone‑influenced terrain, an area known for producing ripe, clean, varietally pure Shiraz. The winemaking is straightforward and modern: stainless‑steel fermentation to retain bright fruit character, followed by a period of maturation designed to soften tannins and add gentle spice without overt oak influence.

The 2022 vintage is generous and fruit‑forward, showing ripe blackberry, plum and a touch of blueberry, supported by notes of pepper, soft spice and a hint of vanilla. The palate is medium to full‑bodied with smooth tannins, juicy dark fruit and a rounded, easy‑drinking finish. A simple, honest expression of Padthaway Shiraz with plenty of immediate appeal.
