About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazBarossa Valley, AustraliaOnly the best fruit sourced from the oldest, shy-bearing wines grown in the Barossa and Eden Valley is selected for the Old Block Shiraz. The 1994 displays the hallmark Barossa characteristics that has made this wine an internationally recognised Australian Shiraz. A rich, full flavoured palate laced with layers of chocolate, cherries and black pepper with soft, velvety mouth coating tannins, now a bit more subtle with the extra time in bottle.

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.

Medium to full red-purple; the bouquet is smooth, with earthy shiraz varietal character set in fairly obvious American oak in the modern style. On the palate there is ample fruit to support the generous helpings of American oak; a well-crafted and sculpted wine.
