ZIMMERMANN SHIRAZ 2002 / 2003

 

ZIMMERMANN SHIRAZ 2002

This was the start of Zimmermann Wine export to Germany. The wine has been open fermented and basket pressed and then matured for 18 months in French and American oak.

Zimmermann Shiraz 2002 is excellent with all dark meats, cheeses, spicy fish dishes, pasta and gourmet barbeques. It will ‘open up’ and reach the full flavour, when decanted.

Zimmermann Wine is approachable now however, it has the concentration, tannin and acid to guarantee longer term cellaring.

ZIMMERMANN SHIRAZ 2002 has limited availability in cases :
6 bottles ( 7850 ml ) / case



ZIMMERMANN SHIRAZ 2003

The wine making has been hand crafted in the same way as the previous year and matured for 18 months in French oak. Production was increased by 100% because the Zimmermann export market to Germany has doubled since 2002.

In 2003 they received 89 points for red wines from the German wine
magazine‘ alles über Wein’ – the highest
score out of 130 tested wines. The description states “A well balanced bouquet of eucalyptus, clove, sherry and pepper on the nose, with complexity and a very long finish – a typical Australian Shiraz”.
