Kay Brothers Amery Vineyard Hillside Shiraz 2001, crafted by Kay Brothers in Australia’s McLaren Vale, is a powerful wine from the historic Hillside vineyard, planted in 1892. The 2001 vintage offers a bouquet of blackberry, dark cherry, and plum, with layers of black pepper, spice, and toasted oak. The palate is rich, full-bodied, and structured, with polished tannins and vibrant acidity that frame the concentrated fruit. Notes of mocha, leather, and minerality add complexity, while the finish is long and refined, with excellent aging potential. Kay Brothers’ traditional winemaking, including basket pressing and French oak aging, ensures a wine of intensity and finesse. Perfect for pairing with grilled steaks or roasted game, this Hillside Shiraz is a collector’s treasure, reflecting McLaren Vale’s historic terroir and offering a sophisticated drinking experience for enthusiasts seeking a bold and elegant Australian red.
