Strandlines are ancient dunes which mark the retreating oceanfront from what is now Naracoorte Range in Wrattonbully. This unique topography harbours the famed Terra Rossa topsoils over Gambier limestone. The significant value of these soils for viticulture lies in the near perfect drainage they provide, leading to small crops of wonderfully intense fruit. When vintage conditions are considered to be at their optimum, Pepper Tree assemble a wine from their finest barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz to be bottled into the flagship Strandlines.
Strandlines is literally the pick of the pick of Wrattonbully, produced in limited quantities and highly sought. Cabernet Sauvignon is planted to the highest dunes of Pepper Tree's Wrattonbully vineyard. Shiraz is grown on red soils with gravelly ironstone layers on the lower slopes. A mostly Cabernet wine, grapes are treated to five days of cold soak and maceration prior to ferment. Components are vinified on skins at 18C to 20C for a week, some parcels are selected for post ferment maceration. The finished wine is filled to a high proportion of new Vayrac and Treuil, Seguin Moreau, Nadalie and Demptos French and American oak barriques for an extended two years maturation. Alcohol 14.5%
TASTING NOTES
Deeply coloured, rich red hue. An intensely concentrated nose of dark berry fruits, chocolates and plum/ cassis over spiced oak complexity. Ripe Cabernet flavours of blackberry and cassis integrate with the exotic spice and mid palate plum pepper sweetness of Shiraz. Strandlines shows great depth of flavour and solid structure, velvet textures and tame, supportive tannins deliver an intensity of lingering fruit on the long memorable finish.
 Pepper Tree
Although Pepper Tree winery is sited in the Hunter Valley and founded as a Hunter Valley winery, the winemakers believe that grapes grown in other regions exhibited characters that should be explored
Over the years Pepper Tree have acquired vineyards in the Orange, Wrattonbully and Coonawarra growing areas to enable the winemaker production of varietal wines that either did not grow as well in the Hunter Valley, or are different expressions of a particular varietal that are of interest to connoisseurs of fine wines. The character and complexity reflected in the Appellation wines are an expression of diverse vineyard resources. A second is the balance and elegance in the Multi-Regional range of varietals. These are blends of a varietal wine made from grapes grown at two or more of vineyards that vary from year to year. All Pepper Tree wines are produced, aged and bottled at the winery. Pepper Tree»
