Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazBarossa Valley, AustraliaSaltram No. 1 is the quintessential Barossa Shiraz.

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.

A big, rich and dense mix of blackberry, licorice and chocolate supported by appropriate oak and tannins. Heroic style. Probably needs more time to show its best.

This outstanding Shiraz offers sweet cassis and blackberry fruit interwoven with notions of oak, earth, licorice, and white pepper. The moderately intense aromatics are followed by a lush, opulently-styled, concentrated wine offering beautiful fruit, nicely integrated acidity, wood, and tannin, and a lush finish. Enjoy it over the next 7-8 years.
