SKU: WIRCATSHI23
The late rebuilder of Wirra Wirra, Greg Trott, saw many of his unusual dreams realised at Wirra Wirra. One vision that never quite became a reality in his time was the building of his very own catapult. Posthumously a medieval siege machine was built in Trott's honour, which is why a fully operational trebuchet sits on the Wirra Wirra lawns ready to fire off watermelons! Bonus points for anyone who can articulate the difference between a catapult and a trebuchet.

”A generous, full bodied shiraz. Defined by exuberant aromas of lilacs, iodine and purple fruit set in relief against a deftly hewn tannic stucture with hints of licorice and a ripple of maritime freshness. Pepper and clove notes grown in intensity as the tannins compress and release flavour in incremental bursts. A warmer climatic expression with a complex cool aura. From organically grown grapes. ”
