About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazBarossa Valley, AustraliaMedium deep crimson in colour. Love rich liquorice, blackberry, dark mocha espresso coffee aromas. Rich ripe blackberry, chocolate roasted coffee flavours. Dense grainy tannins and underlying savoury oak. Finishes firm but long and sweet. A wine with tremendous intensity and volume of fruit. A great RWT vintage Drink to 2025.

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.

Dark chocolate nose; solid and deep, smooth and elegantly weighted in this group. Dominant chocolate makes it seem a touch simple, almost as if it lacks complexity. Good fleshiness and extract. Now to 17+ years.
