Spring was dry and led into a very mild, dry summer with no disease, resulting in fruit with higher natural acidity, and incredible flavour and colour concentration.A dry, warm and windy start to January,however, resulted in one of the worst bushfires in the Adelaide Hills in living memory, though well awayfrom our Lenswood vineyards. By the end of the first week, relief came with 60-75mm of rain and a record-breaking coolest January in 11 years. With the onset of veraison at the end of January, the rain was perfectly timed for the old dry-grown vineyards, and the mild weather that followed from February through to April provided for a fairytale vintage. Most of our white varieties and some Eden Valley shiraz were in before Easter, moving on to the rest of our Eden Valley and Adelaide Hills red varieties soon after, and eventually winding down at the end of April as the rain and cooler temperatures set in. The 2015 vintage has provided stunning and elegant shiraz from Eden Valley, that show extraordinary flavour, purity of fruit and acid balance with the potential for excellent ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrinking Window\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2022-2035\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vinolok\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCritic tasting note: \"Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections.
