Sample
The grapes are dried on racks before fermentation and the added concentration has produced an undeniably concentrated and bold expression of Barossa.
A dense deep red with purple hues in the glass and a nose with ripe plum, dark cherry and cocoa.
Dark cocoa and liquorice tones frame the wine along with a drying baseline of tannin. The impact of fruit gains momentum across the palate with dark cherry moving to plum and blackberry that are melded with oak induced spice. Great length and a long future awaits.
