Woods Crampton Old Vine Shiraz

Woods Crampton. That’s Aaron Woods & Nicholas Crampton and they’re a small winemaking/designer/marketing duo across that ditch behind this cool looking Barossa label.

Actually, “small” is their word. These guys went from producing 1500 dozen to 30,000 in no time and now export all around the globe. In short, the wines look and taste the part and are on fire for a bloody good reason!

Produced from low yielding, old vine vineyards across the Barossa region and aged for 9 months in oak. This wine also has the added bonus of being vegan friendly and lower in sulphites as they have minimal intervention.

This is the latest 2021 release and it scored 90/100 in James Halliday’s Wine Companion, they called it “A deeply coloured, contemporary Barossa shiraz…Juicy and unctuous with fine, tannin and a creme de cassis-like finish.”
