2007 Plantagenet 'Omrah' Shiraz - Museum Collection
88 points Jeremy Oliver
Ripe, generous and richly flavoured, this soft and very smooth young shiraz has a slightly closed but spicy bouquet of dark plums, blackberries and cedary oak backed by a touch of earthiness. It's quite developed for its age, and reveals a meaty, leathery presence of slightly baked, pruney fruit. It finishes slightly warm and spirity.
88 points Wine Enthusiast
as it displays bright, crisply defined cherry fruit, complex mocha and fudge shadings and a food-friendly, medium-bodied nature. Chunky tannins suggest beef or lamb as pairings.
About Plantagenet
Founded in 1968, Plantagenet has been imbued with the pioneering spirit of Tony Smith, the founder who envisaged great things for his land in Mount Barker, and so – established the very first Great Southern commercial sized Vineyards.
After a long-standing association with Plantagenet Wines, the Lionel Samson (founded in 1829) Sadleirs Group progressively acquired Plantagenet shareholding until full ownership in 2000 – when the first order of business was to retain Tony Smith as Chairman of the company.
A pioneer of the Great Southern region, Plantagenet embodies the best of Western Australia with its distinctive, elegant wines. Steeped in a rich heritage, Plantagenet’s expressive wines and family-owned sensibility make it one of the most trusted winebrands in the country.
Producing around 30,000 Dozen cases of wine annually, Plantagenet exports to the UK, USA, Canada, Japan, Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Singapore as well as also supplying the domestic market.
Today, Plantagenet continues to be a family-owned business with Tom (a descendant of Lionel Samson) & Jo Wisdom at the helm and a vision to create wines of provenance and distinction that truly reflect the outstanding potential of the Great Southern wine region.
