In 2018 Barossa Valley experienced a warm dry February with cooler weather in March leading to an extended ripening period which is ideal for the development of the flavour.

The shiraz grapes developed great intensity and structure. The fruit was picked in the cool of the morning and gently crushed allowing some whole berries through to the ferment.

The grapes came from vines with an average age of 25 years. The shiraz used was clone 1654 The juice spent 8 days on skins.

A beautifully balanced shiraz with complex aromas of dark berries, red cherries and elegant oak. On the palate there are lashings of sweet blackberries which are framed by fine grained tannins. The natural acidity ensures the wine has length, flavour and intensity that lingers in the mouth.

About Terra Felix Wines

Established in 2001, Terra Felix is Latin for ‘lucky earth’ or ‘lucky country’, which is how owner Peter Simon’s father described Australia when he migrated from Austria.

Terra Felix aims to create exceptional, affordable wines from Australia’s premium existing and emerging wine regions.

My father, who came from Austria, believed food and wine were the backbone of a strong family life and through his encouragement I decided to make a career of our shared love of wine.

Working with some of Australia’s biggest and most respected companies I applied all that I knew about producing and marketing wine – eventually realising I needed to do things my way.

So in 2001 Terra Felix was born.
