His journey into wine began after initially pursuing political science, eventually swapping books for vineyards and cellars. After studying viticulture and oenology and gaining experience across Australia, Alsace and Burgundy, Simon launched his own label in 2024. His approach is refreshingly simple: work with interesting vineyards, respect the fruit and make wines with character, freshness and a real sense of place.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2025 Tea Tree Hill Vineyard Shiraz is Simon's take on one of Australia's most iconic grape varieties. Sourced from the Tea Tree Hill Vineyard in McLaren Vale, this is Shiraz with a different attitude. Rather than chasing sheer concentration and oak, the focus is on the grape's beautiful aromatics, savoury complexity and natural elegance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExpect juicy blackberries, dark cherries and ripe plums, layered with cracked black pepper, violets and a lovely touch of earthy spice.
