{"product_id":"hayes-family-reserve-shiraz-reserve-2021","title":"Hayes Family Reserve Shiraz Reserve 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eHayes Family Wines is a small, family-owned producer based in Stone Well, on the Western Ridge of the Barossa Valley. Founded by Brett Hayes and helmed by winemaker Andrew Seppelt — a Barossa veteran with over 25 years' experience, including a stint as GM and winemaker at Torbreck — the label is built on old, dry-grown vineyards farmed with minimal intervention, letting each site and vintage speak for itself. The Estate Vineyard is Certified Organic and Certified Sustainable, and Hayes has carried a five-star rating in the James Halliday Wine Companion every year since launching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis Reserve Shiraz comes from Block 9, the Hillside Block of the Estate Vineyard in Stone Well — Certified Organic, on shallow gravelly loam over limestone. The block runs east to west and naturally crops very low, concentrating the fruit that does come off it. Produced in a genuinely limited run of just two barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe wine carries all the hallmarks of Stone Well: a bright purple-red hue, blackberry and earth character, medium-to-full bodied. Dense, decadent fruit is kept in check by abundant natural tannin, giving it real structure. On the palate, expect a sublime core of grated chocolate, liquorice, blueberry and blackberry, framed by fine, sandy tannin and a tense, mineral finish — precisely ripened fruit with a velvety texture, courtesy of winemaker Andrew Seppelt and maturation in French oak. 14.5% alc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a wine built to cellar for as long as you like in the right conditions, with a suggested drinking window of 2030 to 2042.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCritical acclaim:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e96 points — Vinous (Angus Hughson)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e95 points — Wine Companion (Dave Brookes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e95 points — The Real Review (Stuart Knox)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hayes Family Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45641258336325,"sku":"HF21ERS","price":109.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/8644\/4357\/files\/hayes-reserve-shiraz-nv-web.png?v=1788485231","url":"https:\/\/artisanwine.com.au\/products\/hayes-family-reserve-shiraz-reserve-2021","provider":"Artisan Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
