The 2018 Place in Time Sevenhill Shiraz is a premium single-vineyard Shiraz from the renowned Sevenhill district in Clare Valley, a region celebrated for producing Shiraz with power, freshness and refined structure. The excellent 2018 vintage delivered concentrated fruit while retaining vibrant natural acidity. The wine opens with aromas of blackberry, dark plum and black cherry, layered with notes of black pepper, liquorice, dried herbs and subtle cedar spice.
On the palate, it is full-bodied yet beautifully balanced, with fine-grained tannins and a silky texture. Rich flavours of blackberry, plum and dark chocolate are complemented by savoury spice, black olive and well-integrated oak, leading to a long, persistent finish. Already drinking well, the wine has the concentration and structure to continue evolving gracefully over the next 8–12 years.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for customers who enjoy elegant Clare Valley Shiraz with generous fruit, savoury complexity and impressive ageing potential. Pair it with slow-roasted lamb, grilled rib-eye, beef brisket, venison or aged cheddar. Decant for 30–60 minutes before serving to reveal its full character, and enjoy now or cellar confidently over the next decade.
