Richly layered and beautifully structured, this wine offers a compelling balance of vibrant fruit and subtle complexity.
Key Information and Highlights:

- Producer: Mitchell Wines
- Vintage: 2020
- Alcohol: 14.5%
- Cellaring: Best enjoyed 2028 and beyond
- Volume: 750ml Bottle
Ingredients:
Made from 100% Shiraz grapes grown in dry-grown vineyards, this wine is crafted to highlight the expressive power and elegance of Clare Valley Shiraz. The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness, with a touch of whole-bunch fermentation and open fermentation techniques that enhance its aromatic complexity. The wine spends 18 months maturing in French oak barrels, adding layers of spice and finesse.
Producer Background:
Mitchell Wines is a family-owned winery with a proud history dating back to 1962. Known for their dedication to quality and a balanced approach to winemaking, Mitchell consistently produces wines that reflect the unique character of the Clare Valley. Their commitment to sustainable practices and minimal intervention ensures each bottle captures the true essence of their vineyard landscape.
Vintage Notes:
The vintage was marked by ideal growing conditions, resulting in grapes with excellent concentration and vibrant colour. The harvest yielded fruit with ripe black and blue berries, complemented by aromatic spices and a touch of earthiness. The wine’s fermentation with wild yeasts and extended oak maturation has contributed to its depth and layered complexity.
Vineyard Notes:
Grown on dry, trellised vineyards in the Clare Valley, the Shiraz vines benefit from the region’s renowned climate—hot days and cool nights—allowing for slow, even ripening. The mineral-rich soils impart a distinctive savoury edge and fine tannic structure, supporting the wine’s ageing potential.
Winemaking Notes:
Fermentation involved a small proportion of whole bunches to add aromatic complexity and subtle tannins. The wine was matured for 18 months in French oak barrels, enhancing its spice and refinement. The result is a well-balanced Shiraz with a silky texture, fine tannins, and a long, persistent finish.
Flavour Profile:
- Appearance: Deep magenta with violet highlights.
- Nose: An inviting perfume of blackberries, ripe plums, and hints of rhubarb, layered with subtle cedar, cassis, and a whisper of toasted anise.
- Palate: Juicy and elegant, offering flavours of blackcurrant, mulberry, and fresh cherry, with a delicate tartness of rhubarb. Silky, fine tannins provide a graceful foundation, while vibrant acidity lifts the entire profile, culminating in a long, refined finish.
Food Pairings:
The Mitchell Peppertree Vineyard Shiraz pairs beautifully with:
- Grilled lamb or beef dishes, especially with herbs and spices.
- Roasted vegetables and hearty stews.
- Cheese platters featuring hard cheeses and aged cheddar.
- Rich pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces or mushroom ragout.
Enjoy this elegant Clare Valley Shiraz now or allow it to develop further with gentle cellaring until 2028 and beyond. Its balance of fruit, spice, and structure makes it an ideal choice for those seeking a sophisticated, versatile red that embodies the best of South Australian craftsmanship.
