Aged #barossa yumminess. Showing more developed characteristics is earth, leather and spice. At the same time though still had some good fruit and acidity.

Phenomenal wine even before you realize this is crafted from the oldest Syrah/Shiraz vineyard in the world. Intense in flavor, in spice and in vibrancy. A complex wine that is trying to tell you the 180 year history that is has experienced. Planted less than 20 years after Napoleon died. Want it hear the story behind this wine?

Out of magnum. Some heat on the nose that is joined by dark fruit and mint. A very much toned down palate compared to release. A smooth combo of licorice, spice and oak.

Attractive nose of spicy fruit (fruit cake?). Concentrated dark berries gripping the front palate, and good length.

Old-vine Barossa Shiraz (1843) Cassis, mulberry, exotic spice, black tea with focused acidity on the palate, stony minerality and gritty tannins for days.

2002 vintage- beautifully integrated, soft dark fruits and spice supported by a bold yet balanced mouthfeel of tobacco, prune and plum jam. Drinking beautifully with plenty of time up it's sleeve. Amazing piece of Australian history. Made from vines planted in 1843, thought to be the oldest Shiraz vineyard in the world!
