"A fresh shiraz showing notes of blueberries, pressed violets, slate, spices and dried herbs. Medium body, a compact and minerally package of firm tannins and a driven finish. Drink now."

92 Wine Spectator

Generous, with a plump mix of huckleberry and blackberry flavors, revealing a hint of green olive on a dense and juicy frame. Notes of black walnut and dried ginger emerge on the supple finish. Drink now through 2029. 15,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported. –MW

Product Description:

"Not a sledgehammer style, this Barossa Shiraz is made for drinking! Soft, slurpy and textured it is balanced with good acidity, which refreshes the palate and makes you go back for a second / third glass. It is matured for 15 months in old French oak hogsheads sur lie to allow the fruit to fully express itself.

Garnet red with purple hues. A complex nose of dark cherry and blackberry aromas with a hint of forest floor and spice. Vibrant dark cherry and blackberry with a hint of ‘wombat rolled in all spice’ balanced with an even, textural palate with soft, supple tannins." - Winery
