Eden & Barossa Valleys; 100% old vine Shiraz; aged in 100 litre French and American oak octaves; pH 3.64; 14.5% alcohol). 72% of the fruit is from the Barossa valley, the remaining 28% from Eden Valley. Plump, plush, quite glossy and viscous with lots of extract and beautifully polished fine-grained super svelte tannins. A little hint of leather and charcuterie accompanies the dark berry and stone fruits. There’s a deeper, richer, gamier note of lièvre a la royale too – and a hint of molten candlewax. The almost sparkling purity renders the mid-palate impressively crystalline despite the considerable density. 96+.
96/100 Colin Hay; The Drinks Business
Fragrant, grippy, gentle with slow-build power, sweet crushed raspberry and tar, liqourice root, powerful and pumped up but with cooling mint leaf and safe freshness, coupled with silky tannins. 24% new French oak for ageing, grapes sourcing from 78% Barossa, 22% Eden Valley. Winemaker Kevin Glastonbury, 3.64ph, harvest February 25 to March 18.
