Buckshot Vineyard Primitivo 2021

Buckshot Vineyard Primitivo 2021

Buckshot produces 2 red wines  - a shiraz from a distinct 5 acre patch and a Zinfandel from a tiny 1 acre plot. Both vines are planted in the famous 500 million year old Cambrian quartz and ironstone soil of Heathcote. The vineyard was established in 1999.
  
"Buckshot" is a colonial expression describing ironstone pebbles that riddle the soil.
These pebbles allow root penetration and water retention while promoting good drainage. Buckshot soils, along with Heathcote's low rainfall, warm days  and cool nights provide the perfect environment to grow these varieties.  Please note the winery is now labelling as 'Primitivo' which is the Italian name for the same grape.
