2022 house of sticks shiraz
2022
Description
The house of sticks range is piggs peakes medium bodied reds. Well, medium bodied for us……….. To create these wines we like to blend McLaren vale shiraz (which can be very bold, blocky, chunky) with shiraz grown in high country such as the western ranges of NSW (elegant, fragrant) with the end result being a shiraz with deep colour, medium body and lovely aromatics. A small viognier addition adds lift to the nose, aroma and amazingly smooths out some of the rougher edges on the tannin structure. These more elegant wines are also suited to extended cellaring and I find theres a nice sweet spot at 6-8 years of age for people who are in to aged wines. Having said that, they tend to drink well at any point along the journey. Give it a go with a well seared steak.
