The wine

The single vineyard flagship Shiraz, from the steep amphitheatre where it all began. Paringa's distinctive savoury plum and cracked black pepper aromas lead to a rich palate of spicy plum, blackberry and liquorice, fine-grained tannins providing excellent structure, texture and length. Repeatedly one of Australia's most awarded cool-climate Shiraz; a wine for the occasion.

The producer

Paringa Estate began in 1984, when schoolteacher Lindsay McCall bought a derelict orchard in the heart of Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. The first vintage, in 1988, amounted to just three tonnes of fruit; today the estate produces 16,000 cases and stands among the most highly awarded boutique wineries in Australia.

The wines pay homage to Burgundy in style: trophy-winning Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and remarkable cool-climate Shiraz, alongside a stunning, precise Pinot Gris. As Lindsay puts it, anywhere capable of growing great Pinot Noir should be capable of growing great Pinot Gris.

James Halliday calls Paringa one of the best, if not the best, wineries on the Peninsula. The range steps from the charming Peninsula tier through the Estate Series to The Paringa single vineyard wines, the pinnacle of the property.
