WINE TYPE: Red
The resulting Shiraz is full of soft, dark cherry fruit with rich notes of dark chocolate and subtle oak. The palate is textured and layered, with the dark berry fruit aromas again coming to the fore. The palate has a long plush, elegant finish.
WINEMAKING
This heritage release wine comes from Barossa old vines of at least 35 years in age. Their worthiness has been proven over many vintages, consistently producing fruit for wines of distinction and longevity.
It is handcrafted in small open fermenters and basket pressed before 18 months’ maturation in French and American oak barrels. The wine displays classic Barossa Shiraz characters of rich dark berry fruits, plum, black forest cake and sweet spice.
Enjoy now or cellar carefully for up to 10 years.

Review by: Sam Kim, Wine OrbitOpulent and seductively complex, the bouquet shows dark fruit richness, cured meat, mocha, thyme and toasty oak characters. It's equally satisfying on the palate delivering awesome weight and fleshy mouthfeel, wonderfully enhanced by velvety texture and layers of delicious flavours. At its best: now to 2035

Review by: Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine CompanionOld-vine Barossa shiraz aged for 18 months in French and American oak. Wonderful lifted aromatics of ripe blood plum and blackberry fruits along with notes of baking spice, cedar, cherry clafoutis, dark chocolate, blackforest cake, licorice and purple flowers. Weighty and intense with a dark fruit flow, superfine tannin, bright acidity and sweetly fruited, black fruit compote on the long finish. Lovely.
