Description

Nick O'Leary produces some of the best Shiraz in Canberra and with a trophy cabinet that is stacked to the brim for different Shiraz' of his over the years, it's clearly not just us that think that.

It shows beautifully as a young red, full of volume and character. This is a lovely style of Shiraz for Nick, with all the weight and beautiful texture that Canberra Shiraz is known for.

Unfortunately, due to small production and very high demand, there's not much to go around so get in quick if you would like to see what the fuss is about.

An elegant fragrance of red-fruits, dusted spice and lifted white pepper. The palate brims with dark berry fruits and delivers a silky textured mouth feel which finishes with long fine tannins.

Winemaking:

A Canberra regional blend, consisting of 7 different vineyard parcels. Grapes were hand harvested between 12.5 and 13.3 Baume and processed into 3 tonne open fermenters with 30% of Whole bunches, balance whole berries. Matured in 25% new French barriques, balance in seasoned French barriques for 10 months. The parcels were blended and bottled in March 2022.

Region: Canberra District, NSW
Blend: Shiraz (100%)

95 Points - "This is the style of shiraz I want to drink. The aromatic and juicy one; the spicy and lightly fruited one; the compelling and just fabulous one. Very even across the palate, with velvety, plush tannins, and beautifully composed." - Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)

Nick O'Leary

Nick O’Leary is one of the rising stars of the Canberra wine district.

With a little over a decade’s worth of experience in the industry, this superstar is absolutely cleaning up at some of the biggest wine shows in the country.

Nick focuses primarily on Riesling and Shiraz, making great modern styles from great vineyards around the Canberra District.

O'Leary will be a pacesetter for the region for many years to come.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
