Red currant, raspberry, and a hint of plum on the nose; bright, fresh, and floral with vanillin oak in the background; pure red fruits on the palate with a softer acid structure and long, fine tannins to finish. Hand picked from three estate blocks, fermented on skins for 7 days, and matured for 16 months in new and seasoned French oak puncheons before bottling in early February 2025.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRuby red with purple hues — the vibrant, concentrated colour of a Barossa Valley old vine Shiraz from three estate blocks, with the depth and clarity that 16 months in French oak puncheons and careful hand picking deliver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAroma\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed fruited, bright, and floral — red currant and raspberry with a hint of plum, fresh and inviting with vanillin oak in the background.
