Magill Estate Shiraz, first made in 1983, preserves the identity of that vineyard through a single-site wine grown, vinified and matured at Magill. Hand picking, open fermentation and basket pressing remain central to its traditional approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: Penfolds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWine: Magill Estate Shiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage: 2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVineyard: Magill Estate, Adelaide, South Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape variety: 100% Shiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: medium-bodied red wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaturation: 12 months in French and American oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlcohol: 14.5% ABV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottle size: 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Langtons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67932807168302,"sku":"3782580008","price":189.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/2008_Penfolds_Magill_Estate_Shiraz_750ml.png?v=1793860112","url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/products\/2008-penfolds-magill-estate-shiraz-750ml","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
