2022 LSV Shiraz
Inspired by the great Shiraz wines of the world often made with some viognier. This wine contains Shiraz from the best elevated vineyards in Great Western and is co-fermented with a small amount of Viognier.
The viognier helps brighten the colour, lift the aromatics and polish the Shiraz flavours on the palate.
Named after Kym Ludvigsen, one of our most inspirational viticultural leaders. Ludvigsen Shiraz Viognier pays homage to Kym as a distinguished wine communicator from our Great Western region.
HOW DOES THIS WINE TASTE?
Vibrant red fruits of cherry and plum mixed with apricot from the Viognier. Dried petals and white pepper add layers of complexity.
Dense primary fruits give good mouthfeel, with nice tannins and acid giving the wine drive. Shiraz 92%, Viognier 8%
WHAT DO THE WINE CRITICS SAY ABOUT 2022 LSV
'Deep ruby colour. Fragrant with raspberry and blueberry fruits. Sichaun pepper and hints of roses. Medium weighted but with a persistent power to the core of forest berry fruits.
As it drives along we see black and red peppercorns, bay leaf and black slate minerality lift out and build character into the long and silken finish.' Rating 93 points.
The Real Review, Stuart Knox, May 2025
'This Shiraz fruit is from some of the most elevated vineyards in Great Western, co-fermented with 8 per cent viognier to give it an aromatic lift and enhance the colour.
Red cherries and plums, medium bodied and brightly fruited, floral notes and that touch of apricot that the viognier brings, Svelte and slippery, with gentle spice completing the package.'

Tasting Notes
Colour Intense Ruby Red.
Bouquet Intense bouquet of primary fruit characters.
Contains notes of apricot, blackberry, cracked
pepper and cloves.
Palate A vibrant wine with blueberry, raspberry, and
cherry notes. A complex mid-palate of fennel
seed, clove, and spice. This wine finishes smoothly
with soft tannins and fresh acidity.
Pair with your favourite pork dish or Moroccan
fried rice.
Cellaring This wine will soften and form more complex
aromatics and flavours over the next 10-12 years.
Vintage An excellent season with near perfect growing
conditions right through to harvest. Adequate
winter and spring rainfalls set the wines up to
burst into life and sustain beautifully balanced
growth throughout the summer. Autumn was
ideal with little rainfall and warm conditions to
ensure the grapes matured gracefully.
