Tasting Notes:

Deep Garnet in colour. The first thing that hits the nose is a rush of toasted spices – peppercorn, cardamom and star anise – followed closely by dark fruit aromas of blackberry and blood Plum, with complex savoury notes of black olive, fresh coffee and warm spices layered with fine oak aromatics. The palate is rich and generous, with juicy dark-berry and plum flavours, complex earthy notes, mocha and spice. A smooth, textural mouthfeel is pulled together with a structural backbone that lengthens the palate with lingering fruit flavours, chocolatey tannins and notes of cedary oak. 

Technical:

Long-time friends and viticulturists Graeme. Kirsty and Steven have joined together to produce a wine celebrating their time as Grower Liaison Officers. The result is this outstanding Barossa Valley Shiraz. Sourced from the Kurtz Family Vineyards Light Pass vineyard and Waller Wellman vineyard in Marananga. The 2021 winter was the wettest winter recorded at Nuriootpa Weather Station since 1996. October and November also presented rainfall totals above average. Some windy and damp weather in November led to a poor set in some varieties and vineyards. The forecast and expected summer rains from La Niña did not eventuate, to most growers’ relief. A large rain event at the end of February assisted in freshening up the vines leading into harvest. Fermented in a small, open fermenter and hand-plunged to optimise colour, flavour and tannin extraction. Post-ferment, the wine was left on skins for 10 days to further enhance palate length and structure. After pressing, the wine was matured in seasoned French oak for 20 months. May be enjoyed on release or will gain increased complexity with careful medium to long term cellaring.
