Winemaking & Craftsmanship
The team ferments the grapes in open-top tanks with regular punch-downs throughout fermentation. This deliberate approach maximises colour extraction and develops rich, layered flavour at every stage.
Subsequently, the team matures a carefully selected portion in French oak barrels to add subtle complexity and depth. In addition, this partial oak maturation lends quiet sophistication without masking the wine’s natural fruit character. Consequently, fresh fruit vibrancy and gentle oak influence remain in harmonious balance in every vintage. As a result, Lord’s Wines Father Time Shiraz offers both genuine approachability and lasting refinement in equal measure.
Tasting Notes
On the nose, inviting aromas of ripe berries and gentle spice emerge with immediate generosity and appeal. In addition, the palate is smooth and fruit-driven from the very first sip.
Furthermore, soft tannins and a well-rounded structure make this an ideal choice for both everyday enjoyment and special occasions. Moreover, the light oak influence adds depth and quiet complexity without overpowering the wine’s natural vibrancy. Ultimately, the finish is clean, balanced and thoroughly satisfying — a wine that delivers joyfully every time it is poured and shared.
