Full of gnarly old vines, this vineyard has been lovingly restored to prosperity by three generations of the original owner, Pasquale Maglieri’s family, who all still live and work on the land he prospered all those years ago. The vineyard site has a northerly aspect with east west planted rows to help protect the fruit from the hot summer sun, alluvial fan clay soil allowed the vines to establish a very deep root system. Access to reliable good quality water provides a measure of drought tolerance for the vines, made notable by the high quality of fruit produced during the recent run of dry vintages. Only made in the best years, in very small quantities with limited allocations, Reserve Shiraz is not only a forerunner in developing the reputation of Fox Creek, but also the McLaren Vale region; showcasing exceptional fruit quality, structure, complexity, balance, elegance, length of flavour and approachability when young with long term cellaring potential.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"awards\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutstanding\u003c\/strong\u003e – \u003cem\u003eLangton’s Classification of Wine VII\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrand Gold – \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eBerliner Wein Trophy 2022\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreat Gold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e–\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eCatavinum World Wine \u0026amp; Spirits Competition 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrand Gold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e– Asia Wine Trophy 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrand Gold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e–\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eMundus Vini Grand International Wine Award 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e–\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eBerlin Wine Trophy 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilver\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e–\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eInternational Wine Challenge 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e–\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRoyal Adelaide Wine Show 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e–\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eChina Wine \u0026amp; Spirits Award Best Value 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nelson Wine CO.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45134511014190,"sku":"SK35164322","price":89.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/products\/FoxCreekReserveShiraz750ml.png?v=1738975646"},{"product_id":"2014-noon-winery-eclipse-grenache-shiraz-750ml","title":"2014 Noon Winery Eclipse Grenache Shiraz 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom a small crop and a vintage of more modest alcohol levels, resulting in a dense, slow maturing wine.

October, November and December were a little below average and January, February and March were more or less bone dry. Temperatures were mild until late January, so vines seemed to be delayed and harvest appeared like it was again going to be late. However, a few hot days and nights brought the ripening forward with slight sacrifice of acidity. The above average temperatures of February and March and the dryness made everything ripen relatively quickly. Yields appeared on the lighter side, because the heat and dry conditions did reduce them significantly, however they were still quite respectable across all varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Winemaking \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmall batches of grapes are gently crushed and then transferred to five tonne headed down open fermenters. These batches remain separate until final blending. Foot treading is undertaken two thirds of the way through fermentation. The wine is then basket pressed and transferred to a mixture of new and used French oak barriques to complete fermentation. The barrel ferments are aged on lees, and there is no racking until final blending. The Coppermine Road does not undertake fining or filtration prior to bottling, which may result in a harmless deposit in or adhering to the bottle. The Characteristics Dark and intense Cabernet. This wine has personality - a loud and powerful aroma. Very fragrant with green and red capsicum, savoury spices, tomato leaves, blackcurrant and sage. The flavours follow suit, with red fruits, fresh cherries, capsicum, tomatoes and Asian spices. There’s some white and black pepper to be found towards the back palate. A long, lingering and persistent wine that sits with you for a long time. The exciting fine grain tannins have developed over time making for a wine that can be enjoyed now, but promises huge potential. Will cellar for 20 to 30 years, easily. A lovely wine on its own accord, but suggest pairing with a rich meat dish like lamb or steak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCellaring Potential \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile enjoyable in youth, this wine will reach its full potential with bottle age up to at least 20 years.

We do not set out with the aim of making a wine of high (or Iow) alcohol. Our desire rather is to harvest fully ripe fruit which best express the flavour of the grapes and the site. The grapes are picked by hand and fermentation takes place in small open vats with manual pigeage, to help extract colour and tannins. Pressing is also done by hand, using manual basket presses which are gentle and do not extact too much bitterness or astringency. Very little is added or taken away by modern winemaking technology.

Vinification takes place in variable capacity, open stainless steel fermenters and is then matured in new 'Burgundian' pièces for 18 months.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmslanding__image-desc\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"DWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47536972595502,"sku":"SK86750130","price":449.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/yasuotu_1_1_dec44c20-d88a-4d25-80f3-8145d2d323fd.webp?v=1705291305"},{"product_id":"2016-noon-winery-eclipse-grenache-shiraz-750ml-2","title":"2016 Noon Winery Eclipse Grenache Shiraz 750ml","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"52\" data-end=\"376\"\u003eThe 2016 Noon Winery Eclipse is one of Australia's benchmark Rhône-style blends and a flagship wine of Drew Noon. Produced in limited quantities from old, dry-grown vineyards in McLaren Vale, Eclipse has earned cult status among collectors for its richness, complexity, and remarkable ability to combine power with elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"378\" data-end=\"813\"\u003eThe 2016 blend comprises 87% Grenache, 8% Graciano, and 5% Shiraz, sourced from three estate vineyards surrounding the Noon family home and winery in McLaren Vale. These old, unirrigated bush vines grow on their own roots, a rarity in the modern wine world, allowing them to express a true sense of place. Low yields and dry growing conditions in 2016 produced small berries with exceptional flavour concentration and tannin structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"815\" data-end=\"1141\"\u003eThe vintage delivered an outstanding Eclipse. Despite its full-bodied nature, the wine maintains remarkable poise and balance, a hallmark of great Grenache. Drew Noon has long championed the ability of old-vine Grenache to be both intensely perfumed and powerfully structured, and the 2016 vintage exemplifies this philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1143\" data-end=\"1567\"\u003eThe grapes were hand harvested and fermented in small open vats with manual pigeage to gently extract colour and tannin. Pressing was undertaken using traditional basket presses before maturation for 18 months in seasoned 300-litre French and American oak barrels, together with large oak foudres and demi-muids. Minimal intervention throughout the winemaking process ensures the vineyard character remains at the forefront.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1569\" data-end=\"1920\"\u003eThe bouquet is intensely aromatic, displaying layers of raspberry, wild strawberry, red cherry and blackberry, complemented by notes of exotic spice, liquorice, dried herbs, earth, and subtle savoury complexity. Grenache provides the wine's perfume and silky texture, Graciano contributes freshness and structure, while Shiraz adds depth and richness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1922\" data-end=\"2189\"\u003eThe palate is full-bodied yet beautifully balanced, with concentrated red and dark berry fruits, fine tannins, natural acidity, and exceptional persistence. Rich without heaviness, it delivers both immediate enjoyment and the capacity for further evolution in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2191\" data-end=\"2303\"\u003eNow drinking beautifully, the 2016 Eclipse will continue to reward careful cellaring through to 2030 and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2305\" data-end=\"2342\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2305\" data-end=\"2342\"\u003eProducer Tasting Note – Drew Noon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2344\" data-end=\"2828\"\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"2344\" data-end=\"2828\"\u003e\"2016 has produced an excellent Eclipse. The old vines yielded small berries in response to the dry conditions and this has endowed the wine with extra flavour and tannin structure. It is full bodied but not heavy, maintaining a lovely natural poise and balance. It's amazing how Grenache can be so damn pretty and yet so authoritative. But you need old vines and low yields to get this intensity.

This could be more important than is generally recognised, allowing our vines to more readily reflect their terroir and produce wines with a 'sense of place' This circumstance is quite rare in a world sense and gives us a unique advantage. Our vines grow in natural harmony with their environment, They are unirrigated and not trellised, so they appear quite 'free range' compared to most modern vineyards. Yields are low, ensuring the grapes ripen easily with full flavour development. The grapes for Noon Eclipse are picked from three vineyards surrounding and adjacent to our house and winery in McLaren Vale.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"js-content\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"js-content\"\u003eWinemaking\n\u003cdiv class=\"js-content\"\u003eNoon Eclipse is usually quite high in alcohol because it is produced from Grenache grapes from low yielding vines. We do not set out with the aim of making a wine of high (or Iow) alcohol. Our desire rather is to harvest fully ripe fruit which best express the flavour of the grapes and the site. The grapes are picked by hand and fermentation takes place in small open vats with manual pigeage, to help extract colour and tannins. Pressing is also done by hand, using manual basket presses which are gentle and do not extact too much bitterness or astringency. Very little is added or taken away by modern winemaking technology. We prefer to take a minimalist approach, believing that this will deliver a wine which genuinely reflects the grapes and the site. Noon Eclipse is grown, made and bottled on fre estate.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"js-content\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"js-content\"\u003eAgeing\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-more-line js-content\"\u003eNoon Eclipse is matured in seasoned 300 litre French and American oak barrels and large (Foudre and demi- muid sized) oak casks for 18 months.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wickman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47575843995950,"sku":"SK53990188","price":79.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/2014NoonWineryEclipseGrenacheShiraz750ml_6fe4a589-3549-4a2e-8509-1bb5b31826fb.png?v=1701315825"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/collections\/mclaren-vale.oembed?page=6","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
