Vintage Conditions
Average temperatures and two well-timed rain events in late January and early February kept vines healthy and in no rush to ripen, with the rest of February remaining dry.
March saw the beginning of an Indian summer, which lasted until late April. This was perfect for consistent ripening of grapes, with good colour development and natural acidity.
Overview
Deep in colour, this Barossa Shiraz is rich on the palate with sweet berry, plum and savoury aromas. A single vineyard, dry grown product, aged in oak for 12 months, this is a complex wine with silky tannins.
Pair with
Well spiced meats either on the BBQ or roasted in the oven.
