Taylors Jaraman Shiraz (750mL)

Aroma & Palate Black fruits, coffee bean and spice Varietal Shiraz Style Luscious, ripe with spice

Our Notes

We love Taylors wines, especially the Jaraman range, which is a great value wine that pleases everyone. This Shiraz is a blend from the Clare Valley and the McLaren Vale in South Australia making a smooth ripe wine with a bit of spice.

Winemakers Comments

The luscious elegance of the Clare Valley fruit marries superbly with the slightly peppery fruit from McLaren Vale.

At release, the wine has a deep cerise red colour to the centre with a vibrant purple hue to the edges. There are lifted aromas of black plum and blackberry fruit along with a hint of coffee bean and spice.

This is a luscious wine with layers of flavours of dark berry fruit, ripe cherries and plum along with attractive oak characters of roasted coffee beans and spice. Overall, the wine is well-balanced with well-integrated tannins providing the palate with firm structure and persistent length.

Crafted for immediate enjoyment but will cellar over a long term under ideal conditions.

About the Winery

The Taylor family's long-standing association with the Clare Valley begins in the late 1950s when as Sydney wine merchants, they partnered with the Clare Valley Co-operative to bottle and distribute their own wines under the Chateau Clare label.

Then, inspired by the great producers of Bordeaux, and with a vision to craft wines that rival the best in the world, the Taylor family begin an exploration to find the perfect plot of land on which to establish their family estate. On July 20, 1969, their quest brought them to a site by the Wakefield River in South Australia's Clare Valley. So on the same day that Neil Armstrong takes man's first steps onto the moon, Bill Taylor takes his first steps on the soil that will eventually become the family estate.
