2004 Penny's Hills Shiraz Footprint 18 ()
McLaren Vale, South Australia, Australia: 15%; $64 [ cork; DFB; Footprint is the Reserve, winemaker Ben Riggs; 2004 highly rated in McLaren Vale; cropped @ 2 t/ac; partial BF, 20 months in predominantly new French and some US oak; RS 2.5 g/L; 350 cases; Parker 161: " … sensational … a gorgeous bouquet of blackberries, blueberries, graphite, and sweet vanillin. Young and backward yet remarkably pure, rich, full-bodied, and well-balanced … cellar 10-15 years. 93 – 95"; www.pennyshill.com.au ]
Dense ruby and velvet, older than most. Bouquet is rich, but a bit leathery / pruney and bretty / spirity and old-fashioned in this company. Palate is very rich, dry, with boysenberry and plum / prune fruit, the US oak component seeming to dominate the French, and VA higher than some. Flavours linger well in mouth, in its more traditional approach. Cellar 10 – 20 years. GK 12/07


THE WINE
From selected rows of the highest elevation Shiraz plantings, ‘Footprint’ is McLaren Vale Shiraz at its optimum. Remarkably pure, rich, full-bodied and well balanced, ‘Footprint’ best expresses the combined influence of terroir and man’s handiwork.

THE VINEYARDS
The original Penny’s Hill Vineyard is situated on the foothills east of McLaren Vale and experiences a climate slightly cooler than the valley floor that contributes to more even ripening temperatures. Planted in 1991 on Kurrajong formation, with geology consisting of clayey sands and silica-cemented conglomerate, these Shiraz vines are low yielding and produce grapes of exceptional quality and complexity. Narrow planted, in east-west orientation, these rows are 2.2m wide with high density 1.5m vine spacing, effectively reducing the yield per vine, dramatically raising quality and yet still retaining the desired crop levels of the vineyard, approximately 2 tonnes per acre.

Vines are hand tended and spur pruned on a single cordon and together with precise canopy and water management the excellence of this Shiraz parcel is captured. As with each vintage of ‘Footprint’, only the most outstanding rows of Shiraz are hand selected for this limited edition, super premium release.
