About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazBarossa Valley, AustraliaPlanted in 1932, the low-yielding, gnarled vines are some of the oldest in the region. Superb fruit density and concentration on the palate with a beam of bright acidity making the wine appear quite light on its feet for such opulent fruit. Fruit flavours of blackberry, cassis, kirsch and plum all flow seamlessly across the palate supported by hints of spice, liquorice, chocolate, violets and well-judged French oak. The finish is perfectly poised and fine balance.

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.
