The 2007 Springflat Shiraz is 100% Shiraz aged for 20 months in hogsheads, 50 / 50 French / American oak, 40% new. Deep garnet-purple in color, it reveals aromas of warm blackberry compote, dark chocolate with a waft of dried Mediterranean herbs and menthol. The big, concentrated palate has high acidity and a medium to firm level of chewy tannins lingering in the long finish. This one needs another couple of years to be approachable and then should keep to 2020+. Wild Duck Creek is a boutique winery producing just 4000 or so cases per annum. Self taught in the ways of wine (often the best school!), David Anderson started the winery in 1981. The fruit is sourced from estate vineyards planted in the early years of the winery, and they are also working with contract growers. David's son has recently converted all the estate vineyards and some of their contract vines over to biodynamic methods. The bulk of production is comprised of the Yellow Hammer Hill and Springflat labels, while the Cabernet based wines and Duck Muck Shiraz are produced in tiny quantities - under 500 cases each.Importer: Wild Duck Creek will soon be imported by Rathbone Wine Group, USA; www.fsfw.com.au
