Seppelt unveils latest luxury collection release
NATIONAL
This June, Seppelt Wines releases The 2019 Luxury Collection – an annual showcase of the celebrated styles and quality Seppelt is renowned for.
Ten wines make up this year’s release, each exemplary of their vintage, region and style. Led by the flagship 2017 St Peters Grampians Shiraz, the Collection also includes the sought-after Drumborg Vineyard releases and the anticipated formal release of 2008 Show Sparkling Shiraz – a noteworthy vintage, displaying remarkable cellarability and style.
“The 2019 Seppelt Luxury Collection wines are a testament to the diversity and quality of our vineyards,” says Adam Carnaby, Seppelt Winemaker. “Sourced from an array of Victoria’s most renowned winemaking regions, these wines are crafted to truly reflect their regional nuances - unique characteristics which are quintessentially Seppelt in style.”
“In particular, the 2017 St Peters Shiraz is a real tribute to what the Grampians region can deliver. Utterly distinctive, this year’s release was again sourced from the finest, most intense fruit – resulting in a powerful wine, equally displaying great finesse, that will continue to evolve with age.”
Delivering a promising vintage, 2019 also marks a number of significant milestones for Seppelt, namely; 55 years since the forerunner to St Peters Shiraz, ‘Great Western Hermitage’, was first crafted and the renowned Drumborg Vineyard was planted in 1964.
This is the second year Seppelt’s premier wines are released in unison, helping provide consumer clarity around the winery’s leading expressions and guidance for vintage release timing.
The complete 2019 Seppelt Luxury Collection will be available from leading retailers nationwide from Wednesday 5th June 2019.
