Large Eucalyptus McLaren Vale Shiraz represents the pinnacle of single vineyard winemaking from one of South Australia's most celebrated regions. The 'Farm' block, located just south of McLaren Vale township, benefits from unique black loam soils over clay that naturally limit yields and concentrate flavors in small, intensely flavored berries. This terroir-driven approach, combined with Klahn Vineyards' commitment to sustainable viticulture and traditional winemaking methods, produces Shiraz of exceptional quality that truly expresses the character of this special site. Each vintage captures the essence of McLaren Vale's Mediterranean climate and distinctive soil composition.
