Couldn't load pickup availability
Released in small quantities and only in exceptional years, St. Peters is Seppelt’s flagship Shiraz, testimony to the distinctive style and pedigree of Grampians Shiraz. The lineage of this iconic wine dates back to 1964, when ‘Great Western Hermitage’, as it was then known, was first made. Since 1998 this wine has been called St. Peters in honour of the first vineyard planted in the region.
Today St. Peters is sourced from the finest and most intense fruit from the best blocks of the Great Western Vineyard. In vintage 2022 this included select parcels from the Bass, McKenzie, Imperial and Arrawatta blocks. It is a powerful and seductive expression of Shiraz from the Grampians region with extraordinary cellaring potential of 50 years or more. This wine is classified 'Excellent' by Langton's in its Classification of Australian Wine VII.
Nose - A fragrant blend of blackberry and blueberry fruit, licorice, violets, bay-leaf and spice are further complexed by a subtle flint and cordite nuance.
Flavours and Palate - A wine of incredible power, line and finesse that belies its medium body. Upfront silky blackberry and blueberry fruit marries with black pepper, river rock and spicy black olive, complementing subtle mineral gunflint notes and charry oak. Regional graphite tannins focus the wine and provide a framework on which it will comfortably age and develop in the decades to come.
