Foods

A great match for lamb, perhaps roasted and stuffed or studded with herbs, garlic and pancetta.

Oak

French and American oak barrels (new and seasoned).

Colour

Barossa blood red with a purple hue.

Nose

Super blackberries and pure unadulterated 90% Cocoa chocolate. Black plums, macerated raspberry with hints of cracked pepper and brambly spice.

Palate

Entry: Generous dark fruits, like mulberries and boysenberries. A full and frank Shiraz start. Middle Palate: Classic Barossa. Generous, flavoursome with sweet blackberry pie and dark, dry cocoa mouth feel. After Palate: Begins with sweet berry fruit then tightens up with fine fruit and oak tannin. Sweet Christmas spice cuts through the hints of jamminess. Finish: Youthful austerity as you would expect from such a classic, old-school Shiraz. There is plenty of finesse to the tannin and dark chocolate nuances in the lengthy finish.
