The Kennedy Vineyard sits along the east facing slope of the Mount Camel Range, an area known for its ancient Cambrian soils and strong red wine pedigree. These soils, often linked with Greenstone, are prized in Heathcote for their drainage, mineral character and ability to support concentrated, balanced Shiraz. \u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vineyard story began in the early 2000s, with 10 hectares of Shiraz planted in 2002, followed by another 10 hectares in 2003. Further plantings of Shiraz, Tempranillo and Mataro followed in 2007, giving the estate a strong focus on varieties well suited to Heathcote’s warm days, cooler nights and structured red wine style. \u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenrietta Shiraz shows the softer, more elegant side of the region.
