Auslieferung bis zum Frühjahr 2026!
Delivery until Spring 2026!
2023 (Barossa Valley; 100% Barossa Valley Shiraz; aged for 14 months in hogsheads of French oak, 69% of which are new; pH 3.6; 14.5% alcohol). A wine whose staggering quality probably didn’t seem possible after the multiple challenges of a trying, troubling and tricky spring – including flash floods and thunderstorms that delayed flowering. There’s no sense of any of that in the glass. This is a wonderfully svelte and succulent wine with plump raspberry and darker berry fruits vying for attention with the more subtle black cherry and stone fruits. Speaking of subtlety, there are delightful floral undertones here, accentuated rather than hidden by the sweet spices from the oak (which needs a little further time to integrate fully). There’s a little hint of cordite and incense and a touch of cedar and graphite that will become more prominent with age. Soft and caressing with the finest of polished tannins, this is accessible already but built to go the distance.

A slightly more charged version of Shiraz than the St Henri, this has a bigger dollop of chocolate, salinity, blood orange, red earth, campfire, muscular tannins and a ton of spice. Great quality, with a beautiful lift through the finish. Tom King director, Peter Gago chief winemaker.
