Description
A top vintage (2021), elite, "exciting Barossa Shiraz…generous in every respect" (WinePilot) with two scores of 94pts. “Upfront and gorgeously perfumed, the bouquet is filled with dark berry, warm spice, rich floral and cedar characters. The palate displays excellent richness and generosity, combined with plump mouthfeel and velvety texture, leading to a lengthy sumptuous finish.94pts” (Sam Kim, Wine Orbit).
“An exciting Barossa Shiraz which comes from a single site. After a ten day fermentation, the wine spent a further fifteen months in a mix of French and American barriques and hogsheads, 40% of which were new. This is a vibrant mauve/purple with swirling aromas of plums, chocolate, coffee grinds, florals, flesh and blackberries. A sour cherry note emerges on the palate, along with more dark chocolate. The wine is generous in every respect. There is good extraction, fine balance and excellent length. Silky tannins round out proceedings, making for a cracking Shiraz. Enjoy over the next eight to ten years.94pts.” (Ken Gargett, WinePilot).
