A Century in the Making
A century in the making, this 100-year-old vine Shiraz is a rare and extraordinary release, marking both the vineyard’s centennial and Stanton & Killeen’s 150-year legacy.
Rich and full-bodied, the 2021 Jack’s Block Shiraz is layered with blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and coffee bean, woven with savoury spice and firm, elegant tannins. It’s a wine built to age, made from vines that have seen it all.

From Soil to Cellar - A Year in the Vineyard with S&K
The wonderful thing about working with vines is they create a beautiful rhythm to the year. The vista always evolves and builds to a crescendo of hard work when we harvest in summer/autumn. There are many times of the year where we could lose everything – frosts, disease pressure, bushfire smoke, too much rain, too little rain...growing grapes is not for the faint-hearted! Luckily, we have Scott and Marie in the vineyard who do a fantastic job of delivering the finest fruit to the winery. This isn’t an exhaustive list of everything we do here but it’s a summary of what each month can bring.
