BANROCK STATION WHITE SHIRAZ

Located on the banks of South Australia’s mighty River Murray is the 1,800-hectare property of Banrock Station. The vineyard combines environmentally sound techniques and equipment with state-of-the-art winemaking. Located in a wetlands area, Banrock Station has made substantial contributions to Landcare Australia.

For every bottle sold, a donation is made to the Banrock Station Wetlands Foundation Canada to support wetland conservation projects.

RECOMMENDATION: The Banrock Station White Shiraz is the ideal accompaniment with a warm Thai salad or spicy Asian stir-fry.

WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS:  Produced entirely from Shiraz grapes, gently pressed in an air bag press to prevent harsh tannins and colour from being extracted, and allowing fresh fruity flavours to dominate.

TASTING NOTES:  Light rose petal in colour, the Banrock Station White Shiraz displays a fresh lifted strawberry fruit nose, with floral rose and jasmine aromas.  These strawberry fruit flavours continue onto the semi-sweet palate, with a lovely zesty finish.  This wine is best consumed within the next 12 months.

Toronto Sun: "Rich strawberry/red berry fruit that follows to the palate. An easy-drinking sweet style with a crisp finish." - Recommended by Rick VanSickle (July 30, 2006)
