Black with purple/crimson red hue. A dense juicy nose with red and black forest fruits, spicy plum,black cherry and pepper. A classic, rich full bodied Barossa Shiraz. No wonder this is considered our “WOW!” wine after the Decanter review it received. The wine has an array of characters with upfront plum, dark chocolate, fennel, cedar and the new French oak providing a hint of vanilla. Sweet Shiraz fruit surrounds a firm tannin backbone whilst a touch of earth and acid provides length, which adds a moorish element that is enticing.
Mungo Park is a single vineyard wine sourced from the famed Northern Barossa Valley sub region – the Moppa and near the Kalimna Vineyard, which is the mother vineyard of “Grange”. The vines themselves are up to 80-year-old and they are cropped, using green harvesting, at less than 3.0 tonne to the acre. Grapes were picked at dawn, it receives fermentation, like our top wines, Exile and Émigré, which is conducted in small open top fermenters, followed by malolactic fermentation and ageing in 100 per cent new French oak barrels.
