2021 Apple Tree Flat Shiraz

APPLE TREE FLAT

Once upon a time, in a little town called Apple Tree Flat, a humble winemaker created quality, true varietal wines that were affordable enough to enjoy every day.

Luckily, this story is true.

The beauty of these wines can be found inside the bottle and out. The labels feature hand-drawn illustrations depicting the people, places and experiences of our winemaker’s home and winery. Whilst inside the bottle you'll find fruit driven wines with excellent regional expression that represent astounding value for money.

Despite such humble beginnings, Apple Tree Flat wines make big waves in Australia and around the world.

TASTING NOTES

The 2021 Apple Tree Flat Shiraz has come a long way since its inaugural 2001 release, evolving and improving with each vintage yet still retaining the signature ‘Logan’ style. The wine retains a plush core of fruit and texture however over the years more savoury characters have been integrated on an increasingly focused structure, making these reds a little more serious while remaining juicy and accessible for everyday drinking.

 I like to maintain interest by evolving the wine each vintage, striving to make it that little bit better and more interesting. But I’m also conscious that our customers choose to buy our wines a second or third time because they enjoyed their first experience of Apple Tree Flat. It’s important to honour this initial experience and not change the profile of the wine too dramatically.

The 2021 Apple Tree Flat Shiraz has plenty of complex savoury and spicy characters and a fruity mix of berry and plum flavours, making it an excellent partner with many dishes but equally enjoyable on its own due to its supple texture.
