The 2022 Barossa Shiraz is sourced from vineyards on the western ridge of the Barossa. Planted on sandy clay loams, this wine embodies the quintessential Barossa Shiraz, characterised by dark fruits and generous tannins. Vinified through the historic 1888 Gravity Cellar – which is highly regarded for its small batch format and gentle maceration. Built into the hillside on a series of terraces, gravity guides the flow of fruit down through the winery to deliver gentle extraction of colour, flavour, and tannin. Matured with moderate French oak influence.
Bright red with a youthful crimson hue. Lifted dark cherry and plum fruit with dark chocolate and brown spice. Classic Barossa ripeness with dark fruits and dark chocolate richness, balanced cedary oak, juicy acidity, and mouth filling tannins.
Best enjoyed now, with cellaring potential until 2035.
