2013 Smidge Wine Magic Dirt 'Willunga' Shiraz - Mclaren Vale
The award-winning Magic Dirt is the star of the Smidge Wines range and reflects what the French call “terroir” – a word that holistically brings together the soil, the sun, the wind, the rain, the slope, ultimately anything that influences a vine’s specific growth habitats, in particular the influences of the natural environment.
These factors deliver some amazing parcels of fruit and together with expert winemaking, nurture the characteristics that consistently places Magic Dirt among the elite of Australia’s wines.
“The Magic Dirts are complex, long and flavoursome wines,” he adds. “With one barrel from each vineyard, there’s a scarcity factor that adds to the wonderful experience. “
Matt is now extending the Magic Dirt experience to embrace McLaren Vale vineyards that grow Shiraz using the same methods as those in the Barossa Valley, including his own block in Willunga.
