1x Monolith Vintners Monolithic Old Vine Barossa Valley Shiraz 2019 - 14.50% Alc
A massive all-encompassing nose but once allowed to breathe you will find this mellows. Dark plum and cranberry notes with leather saddle and earth which indicates the age whilst pepper, dark chocolate, and black currants all play a role here. The oak influence is obvious despite its age and highlights the quality of the new oak used. The palate is concentrated and straight up its no shrinking violet, offering up tremendous texture and richness with notes of dark plum, cranberry, black olive, saddle leather, alcohol and scorched earth. Brooding and densely packed, this style of wine requires decanting and time to breathe to soften prior to consuming although will be cellared prior to release the wine has the fruit, alcohol and tannin structure to ensure cellaring for many more years where it will continue to evolve.
1x The Colonial Estate Exile Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021 - 14.50% Alc
Stunningly dense purple/black in colour with purple hue. Wonderful array of aromas here featuring perfumed scents with black fruits, plums, Mediterranean herbs, graphite, licorice, smoked meats, truffle and black pepper. Big, bold and beautiful. There is velvet like texture which runs through this wine hand in hand with its serious depth and concentration. Blackberries, cherries, blackcurrant, dark chocolate, damp earth, and truffles almost every flavour under the sun seems to appear and disappear with every sip. The tannins from the power of the Shiraz fruit are evident yet are balanced by the soft juicy fruit flavours.

The Wine Single Vineyard Barossa Shiraz 2021 exemplifies a stellar vintage, receiving high acclaim, notably from renowned critic James Halliday for its exceptional quality relative to previous years. This Shiraz presents a deep, ruby hue with vibrant reflections. On the nose, it offers an intoxicating blend of ripe blackberry, plush plum, and a hint of peppery spice, underpinned by well-integrated, luxuriously toasted oak that promises complexity and longevity. The palate is robust and richly layered, featuring dense berry flavours elegantly framed by silky tannins and a subtle smokiness that leads to a long, satisfying finish. Its careful oaking has not only enhanced its structure but ensures that this wine will mature gracefully, developing greater depth and nuance over the years.
