Wild Duck Creek The Blend 2000, crafted by Wild Duck Creek Estate in Australia’s Heathcote, is a robust and mature wine, likely a Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon blend, from a balanced vintage. The 2000 vintage offers a bouquet of blackberry, cassis, and dark cherry, with notes of black pepper, spice, and toasted oak. The palate is rich, full-bodied, and structured, with polished tannins and vibrant acidity. Subtle hints of mocha, leather, and minerality add complexity, while the finish is long and refined, showcasing the wine’s graceful evolution. Wild Duck Creek’s artisanal winemaking, including hand-harvesting and French oak aging, ensures a wine of intensity and elegance. Perfect for pairing with grilled steaks or roasted game, this Blend is a collector’s gem, reflecting Heathcote’s terroir and offering a sophisticated drinking experience for enthusiasts seeking a bold Australian red.
