The fruit for this wine is picked from a number of sites across the Barossa Valley to create a wine that reflects the different composites found across this much loved region - a good honest 'Barossa' Shiraz.
Blackcurrant and plum to the fore with a hint of the oak the wine spends 18 months in, a combination of old and new, French and American. Peppery and smooth in the mouth, the pepper presenting itself straight away, building and building in the mouth.
Give this wine a little time, it improves if you do so. The pepper settles a little, it's still present but takes a back seat to allow some of the fruit and oak to further shine. 90+ - Good
