James Halliday – "The ancient (1847 planted) vines provided the backbone of this ultra-elegant, medium-bodied, French-oaked shiraz. Its perfect texture and balance." - 98 Points - Halliday Top 100 Wines of 2023 (The Australian Newspaper, November 2023)

About This Wine

The colour is deep red-purple and the bouquet reveals plum and raspberry, dark-cherry and spice aromas in a fruit-driven, subtly oaked style. A full-bodied red of purity, poise and harmony. Great now and has excellent long-term potential.

The result of a very intricate blending process. After each parcel of fruit is individually vinified & aged in specially selected French oak barrels, the final blend is created with careful consideration to uphold its reputation for cellaring gracefully, retaining its freshness and balance for many years.

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.
