"This wine has come from vines that have been growing on Kangaroo Island for 25–30 years. It's a rich shiraz with plenty of oak sauce, though it has to be said that the oak here is complementary. The fruit is up to it. The flavour profile is all sweet plum, peppercorn, smoked cream and toast, the palate generous and the finish taut. It's a mouthful, in a good way, and it has many years ahead of it."

Springs Road KI Terre Napoleon Shiraz 2022
Terre Napoleon is our Kangaroo Island barrel selection. The wine bursts with dark fruit (with a hint of orange peel) on the nose and palate. This wine is both mouth-filling and medium to full-bodied with a combination of balance, poise, wonderful structure and palate length.
