The 22nd release of Meshach celebrates the great 2012 Barossa Valley vintage. The colour is still deep crimson purple, setting the pattern for the bouquet and palate to follow. A wine of the highest quality in the Olympian class of Barossa Valley Shiraz, seamless, calmly powerful and perfectly balanced. Black fruits dominate, but this is no one dimensional power play, with hints of licorice, bitter chocolate and graphite. The tannins and oak contributions are perfectly placed and paced. Drink to 2042.

Deep red purple, youthful colour, and the bouquet screams coconut and vanilla toasted oak. The wine is full bodied and very edgy, with bitter, aggressive oaky flavours predominating. A massive wine, outrageously oaky and demanding patience. I can’t imagine wanting to drink this for another four years, minimum. In other words, not till it's at least 10 years old. But it has undoubted concentration and richness.
