OcttavaGrazioso 2015 Shiraz Barossa Valley
About this product
The wines were fermented on skins for two weeks and matured in a mix of American and French oak hogsheads for 24 months. The result is an intensely avoured wine with complex characters and a rich structure that can be cellared for many years.
Rich aromas of plum and dark cherries with hints of sweet tobacco and star anise. The palate is dense and structured with fruit intensity and a lingering spicy finish. Made in limited quantities, our Grazioso wine can be enjoyed now or cellared for twenty years.

This substantial offering exhibits dark fruit richness with vanillin oak, cake spice, potpourri and chocolate tart aromas on the nose, followed by an immensely powerful palate that’s dense and plush. The wine displays outstanding depth and complexity, finishing magnificently long and symphonic. At its best: now to 2035.
