Description
Colour Deep crimson red with purple hues
Aroma Distinctively perfumed Barossa Valley Shiraz with lifted berry, licorice, black currant, lavender and hints of mint and spice. Some background toasty notes are derived from good quality oak adding to the brooding layers. The final wine is unique and intriguing.
Palate A seductive wine displaying balanced palate weight, length and structure. Rich concentrated fruit characters are complemented by spicy, vanillan oak and velvety tannins. Lingering raspberry, plum, licorice and dark chocolate flavours provide length on the palate. With its elegant structure, but powerful flavour, ensure great aging potential and makes for perfect drinking while young.
Wine The fruit is sourced from our single Hill Block vineyard, located at Rowland Flat, in the Southern Barossa Valley. This premium Shiraz is always the first block to ripen for the season as a result of;
• It’s aspect on the Hill which captures the sunlight
• The rocky soil which retains the warmth from the days sun
The wine is a standout – classic Barossa characters coupled with concentration of fruit and a unique licorice and black current depth. Temperature controlled oak maturation and barrel selection ensures the best possible quality for this single vineyard wine.
