Overview
The Hatchling is Schubert Estate’s generous, fruit-driven expression of Barossa Valley Shiraz. It draws on selected parcels from across the estate’s Roennfeldt Road vineyard together with fruit from neighbouring vineyards in Marananga, showcasing the richness and depth for which western Barossa Shiraz is renowned.
Vineyard
Schubert Estate’s Roennfeldt Road vineyard is divided into distinct blocks reflecting variations in soil, elevation and topography. Within these blocks, plumper, larger-berried Shiraz bunches are isolated and vinified separately, with selected fruit from neighbouring Marananga vineyards complementing the estate-grown component.
For the 2021 wine, Dave Brookes notes that fruit was sourced from Block 2 of the Schubert Estate vineyard, where light sandy loams lie over red-brown clays.
Viticulture
Schubert Estate follows a low-intervention, site-focused approach to viticulture, managing individual vineyard blocks according to their particular soils, varieties and growing conditions. The estate is certified with Sustainable Winegrowing Australia.
Critic Reviews
94/100 — Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
“Sourced from Block 2 on the Schubert Estate, with its light sandy loams over red/brown clays. Deep magenta and crimson in the glass with gorgeous raspberry pip high tones on a base of ripe satsuma plum, blackberry and blueberry… There's a beautiful depth and sustain to both fruit and tannin here, with a beautiful long draw on the finish.”
