Hastwell & Lightfoot Sands of Time Shiraz McLaren Vale, 2020
Australia
Producer
Grape Variety
Shiraz
Chocolate, coffee, herbs and sweet cherry aromas complement one another and lead to a palate with fruits, plums and sour cherry. For the third year in a row, McLaren Vale experienced a drier than usual season restricting the vine’s vegetative growth and producing low yields of grapes. Matured in American oak vats and barrels for 18 months. The soils at Hastwell & Lightfoot are deep and sandy – some are pure sand down to 5-6 metres or more – brought in and dumped over millennia by prevailing westerlies from the coast some 10 kilometres away.
