WINEMAKER’S NOTE
 Excellent rainfall throughout winter 
and spring provided promising 
conditions leading up to the 
season. Flowering was affected 
by wet and cold conditions that 
resulted resulting in low to very low 
yields. The cool season continued 
with summer being the coolest 
on record resulting in a very late 
harvest that was concluded without 
rain interruption. These conditions 
produced some amazing fruit with 
very high acids and concentrated 
flavours, albeit at reduced yields 
Coming from a single block we 
hand-picked just under 1 tonne 
of exceptional fruit, which was 
destemmed and fermented as 
whole berries. Matured in old 
French barriques to allow the fruit 
to sing. Named “L’Optimiste” for the 
optimistic outlook for the variety on 
our Lenswood estate.

TASTING NOTES
 Appearance: Dark cherry red.
 Aroma: Lifted and robust aromas 
of ripe plum, wild blackberry, and 
star anise. Oak plays a subtle, yet 
effective role in the background. 
The cool vineyard site shines 
prominently through this highly 
perfumed bouquet.
 Palate: A concentrated and 
intriguing wine that sits rich and 
abundant in the mouth, yet displays 
bright flavours of fresh blackberry, 
mulberry and raspberry. Classy, 
fine-grained tannins from whole 
berry vinification round out the lush 
back-palate with style.
 Summary: The 7th release of Shiraz 
from this unique site. This variety 
continues to live up to its name 
with promising signs for the future. 
Drinks well now and will do so for 
the next 10 years.

This is an awesome product and affordably priced! I'll buy more in the future!
Color: Comet - Small, Size: Small
This is a great ball for my dog Polly! It doesn't stink or have any weird oils on the ball. It is definitely durable. It has a nice chirping sound and it's great exercise for my dog's jaws. It's not too bouncy and it's the perfect weight that she feels satisfied having in her mouth and when she catches it in mid-air. It's not too heavy that I have to worry about it knocking her teeth out. I almost cancelled the order after I found out the size of the ball, I thought it was a larger ball that Bark makes. It turns out it is larger than a tennis ball which is what I wanted. Someone gave us a black, knobby, ball that is 12.5 inches in diameter and she absolutely loves it, it's her favorite ball. It's the perfect size for her American Pit Bull mouth! I cannot find this product anywhere or a comparable alternative that's the same size. If you know where I can purchase another ball that I've described @ 12.5 in. diameter, please let me know! I'll likely buy this ball that was just delivered, today, in the future, if it's not discontinued! It's a great deal for only $14.99!! Thanks from a happy satisfied customer, V.B.

Sort of good for tough chewers??
Color: Deep Roots Carrot - Small, Size: Small Dog
The actual carrot part (orange part) is tough chewer approved and my dog loves. It’s basically the same shape and size as his kong. However the leaves (green part) is not tough chewer approved. He ripped ALL those leaves off and ate them within 5 minutes of me giving him the toy. However they passed through him fine.
