The original plot ran to just 0.8 hectares, and the name points at the volcanic rock scattered across its soil. The Shiraz came from cuttings taken at Best's and Tahbilk, set on a mix of rootstock and own roots. Glover had recently done a vintage at Château de la Tour in Burgundy, and it shaped his approach here: pick riper, press earlier, and chase a little more flesh and accessibility out of a fully whole-bunch ferment. This is a museum release, held back and opened up by years in the estate's cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLayered and shifting, with dark fruit, wild herb and the stemmy, peppery spice a full whole-bunch ferment gives, and tannins now fully resolved. Decant it and serve at 16 to 17 degrees. Roast lamb with rosemary, braised beef short rib, or a mature cheddar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
