About this Wine

This red was harvested from the Riedl Estate in the Barossa sub-region of Vine Vale in the 1890s. Poured into a wine glass, it flaunts deep red colour. On the nose, it emanates aromas of deep rich mocha, toffee and chocolate combined with defined oak character. The velvety palate reveals complex flavours of herbs, cloves and Shiraz fruit. The tannins are veneered, smooth and soft with a lingering persistence. You may pair it with beef or lamb dishes.

Barossa Valley Wine

The Barossa Valley wine region has historically and currently still is one of Australia's most prestigious premium wine producing regions. Located just 60km north east of Adelaide city centre, the climate there is very hot and dry which is perfect for the big bold reds the area is famous for.

A straight Shiraz is what Barossa is most well known for, however Rhone blends, such as Shiraz Cabernet are also very popular. While much less prevalent, white wines (Chardonnay, Riesling, Semillon) are planted on the higher altitude hillsides where the ocean breeze cools temperatures down to a level suitable for producing these varieties as well.

Some of Australia's earliest Shiraz plantings can be found here dating as far back as the 1850's. While not always a guarantee of quality, it might be worth seeking out and trying one of the region's "old vine shiraz" if you haven't yet.

Critic reviews

James Halliday – Binder's malt chocolate tannins melt across this powerful wine's attack of dark fruit flavours and spice: plum, dark cherry, mace and five-spice spring to the nostrils. There is nothing whatsoever jammy about this, with the kinetic fruit held tightly to the plush breast of all American oak and impeccably drawn out grape tannins. The end result is one of power, intensity and yet, a lingering impression of savouriness.
