RockfordBasket Press Shiraz 2007
About this product
Rockford Basket Press Shiraz. Firmly entrenched as a cult wine icon of the Barossa Valley, Rocky O'Callaghan's masterpiece Shiraz evokes thoughts of all things brilliant about Australian wine, and in particular, Australian Shiraz. Painstaking bunch and parcel selection takes place to produce a small quantity of Barossa liquid gold. The 2007 Basket Press is a typical Rockford with a subtlety not seen in most super-premium Barossa wines. Rich briary characters are still at the fore, softening by the day. Classic.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Good hue; made in the usual laid back Rockford style, deliberately traditional and thus a true reflection of the vintage conditions that invest the wine with some briary characters needing time to soften.
