Fruit for this wine is sourced from the Back Block 2004 planting. The soil on the Back Block is quite different to that found on their lower lying blocks, highlighting the diversity of soil types across their vineyard site. Predominantly sandy loam over mottled red and yellow clay, strongly influenced by a vein of heavier textured ironstone. The combination of this soil type and the Shiraz clone 1654 produces wines with intensity of flavour and age-worthy structure.
The wine immediately shows bright, lifted aromatics of raspberry, blackberry, violet florals and black pepper spice. The palate is vibrant and expressive, all about primary fruit. The mix of red and black fruits is accompanied by a bright line of acid and a soft, powdery tannin profile. There is a `mineralic` feel that runs the length of the palate with the wine showing great poise and balance.

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.
