About this product
A deep, inky black wine with impressive concentration. Dark, smoky plum and bitumen aromas complement a complex palate. The palate is rich, full bodied and shows all the hallmarks of great Shiraz balanced with good oak selection and integration to produce wine with good ageing potential. It shows substantial aroma, and rich, dark fruit balanced with perfect acidity and big dry tannins. The finish is long and generous, leaving rich dark chocolate flavours lingering.

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.

The seductively styled bouquet shows fabulous attack of juicy fruit richness together with dark spice, milk chocolate and truffle characters. It is concentrated and expansive on the palate, displaying velvety texture and plush tannins, finishing impressively long and delectable. At its best: now to 2030.

Barossan to its very core, and from a great vintage! Super - generous black fruit flavours, regional black earth, deep details of molasses, smoked meats and melted chocolate. Effortless in its intensity and wrapped comfortably in a soft blanket of mooreish tannins. One for the lovers of big, balanced, beautiful Barossa reds.
