Tasting
The wines produced by Wild Duck Creek are always a point of difference from the region. The Yellow Hammer Hill is a blend of Shiraz and Malbec and provides a restrained nose of plum and blackberry with some floral notes and gentle wood spice.
The palate has a baseline of bright acidity with tarry, earthen tannins that combine with elements of eucalyptus to form a complex and enjoyable combination before giving way to a savory, long finish.
A bargain if purchased at $25 on release.
