Ah, foiled again! All the milk chocolate in the world just won’t do if you want something dark, broody and mischievous. Underlying purity from the vineyard, it holds onto youthful austerity while delivering as you would expect from classic Barossa Shiraz – cool and intelligent – Germanic heritage abounds. Imagine drinking with hard local cheeses.
Great richness with line and length. Dark Chocolate and Sugar Plums this wine is deep, vibrant, fleshy and accessible. With a sweet Christmas Spice finish to cut through the hints of jamminess.

"Youthful and beautifully fragrant, the wine shows dark berry, violet, tar and assorted nut aromas. The palate delivers succulent fruit intensity with plump mouthfeel and silky texture, finishing long and supple. Wonderfully styled and splendidly drinkable. At its best: now to 2038."
"A refined and elegant expression of Barossa shiraz, but still one with plenty if punch and drive. Earthy plummy aromas with traces of clove and mulberry. The palate is perfectly integrated with chalky tannins merging seamlessly with the opulent fruit and supported by nice oak treatment. A little coffee and licorice completes an excellent wine. Cellar: 10 years."
