Grape: Shiraz
Vineyard: Martin & Joan Smith’s vineyard
Region: Polish Hill River / Clare Valley
Country: Australia
Note: In the late 1890's the Blue Cutting Road was hand dug by Polish settlers whilst waiting for gainful employment. Blue Cutting Road is situated in the Polish Hill River region of the Clare Valley. Not only does this road remain a usable summer bush track connecting two main roads, it dissects the two vineyards that provide valuable, flavorsome fruit for a range of O'Leary Walker wines. Much of the settlers' influences have filtered throughout the beautiful Clare Valley and many of the fruits of their labors are still evident today.
Tasting Notes: The bouquet is a perfect textbook Clare Valley Shiraz with black pepper, mulberries, black olives and eucalyptus. The palate is rich, intense and very drinkable. The acid is crisp and refreshing. The tannins are juicy and quite elegant with a fine long clean warming finish.
A classic Clare Valley terroir character of eucalyptus sings in this wine. The palate is full bodied and packed with flavour. The long after taste makes for a lovely drinking red.
