Leone Shiraz is beautifully ripe and generous, this wine has rich blackberry, plum fruits with clove and spice which typifies Barossa Valley Shiraz.

Vineyard: Sourced predominately from two vineyards within our Barossa Valley estate. Angels Shiraz “new” block planted in 2005 at Lyndoch and Dam Shiraz block planted 1995 at Rowland Flat Both vineyards are considered southern Barossa. There is a mixture of clones 1654, BVRC30 and BVRC12 and planted on a single wire trellis controlling crop load to low/moderate allowing for full ripeness of polysaccharides and phenolics in the skins and seeds.
Winemaking: Fermentation occurred in closed static stainless steel tanks for 10-15 days and pumped over twice daily.Maturation in American oak for 24 months allowed for the tannins to evolve and soften.

“The bouquet is sweetly ripe and inviting, showing dark plum, cherry, toasted spice, and assorted nut aromas. This leads to a fruit-expressive palate offering juicy flavours with a smooth texture and finely integrated tannins. Flavoursome and delightfully drinkable.”
Ray Jordan – 91 points
“Gosh, this is an easy drinking Barossa shiraz from a very good year. Juicy ripe plummy dark chocolate combination strikes immediately. It works so well with the vanillin oak influence and that final touch of licorice and richer mocha. A neatly made wine.”
