About this Wine

Aromatically intense, the wine shows notes of blackcurrant and mulberry fruit along with a hint of subtle roasted spices. On the palate a mixture of darker blackcurrant fruit is joined by red fruited cherries and a glimpse of secondary flavours of mocha, coffee and dark chocolate. This early mouth-filling fruit presence is then enveloped just enough by a tannin frame that is slightly more prominent than some previous years. This provides genuine structure, balance and control as the wine moves through the mouth.

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.
