This wine delivers classic Shiraz characters. Fruit has been
sourced from a number of our most renowned growing
regions, creating a wine with the delicious red and black fruit
characters, and enticing spice and pepper nuances.


The name comes from my childhood days. I, along with my two
sisters and older brother, would run around our local park,
under the watchful eyes of our mother and father. When we
had suitably exhausted ourselves, we would gather under a
beautiful old Oak tree, with wide trunk and massive almost
exaggerated canopy. To gain a few minutes peace, our parents
told us if we made a wish under this tree, it would come true.
The tree became The Wishing Tree.  JL
Press Reviews


2004 The Wishing Tree Shiraz  

89pts
"Bright and lively, with a crisp edge to the ripe blackberry, cherry and white pepper
flavors, which lifts the finish beautifully. Drink now through 2007."
Harvey Steiman Wine Spectator (Nov 2005)


“Medium ruby. Brisk, racy, elegant aromas of fresh blackberry, cassis and dark
cherry. Very much about fruit, with no herbal edges. Firm, juicy, structured finish
emphasizes tangy cherry fruit.” 88pts
