2006 Hiraji's Spell Shiraz
In
1943 a fine young gelding named Hiraji was born in the stables at
Borambola. Raised and trained in our lush Riverina paddocks, Hiraji
went on to win the 1947 Melbourne Cup. Now the paddocks are home to
some 50 rows of outstanding Shiraz grape vines.

NOSEConcentrated bramble fruit with aniseed on the nose.
