Intensely deep crimson colour, powerful but full of grace and showing fine balance and structure. The wine opens up with spicy blackberry notes. With time in the glass the wine reveals hints of cracked black pepper and then toffee, dark chocolate, and espresso coffee.
Sourced from Barossa vineyards where the vines range from young (approximately 10 - 12 years old) to old (greater than 35 years). They are planted in a diverse range of sites and soils, including red brown earths, sandy loams and dark clay soils. These variations contribute to the great diversity of flavours.
Matured for 10 months in 6% new Hungarian & French hogsheads and barriques. Balance in older hogsheads, barriques and puncheons.

"A Classic Barossa shiraz with an inviting combination of sweet dark fruit and chocolaty oak aromas and a palate with a sweet core of varietal fruit and supporting oak."
90 Point Rated - David Brookes Halliday Wine Companion
"Juicy, contemporary shiraz from Yalumba, flush with juicy blueberry, satsuma plum and macerated summer berry fruits along with hints of baking spice, jasmine, licorice, Old Jamaica chocolate and just a shimmer of pepper and earth..."
