The 2020 Schild Estate Barossa Valley Shiraz has bright and lively aromatic notes of blackcurrant and mulberry fruit follows through to the palate where they are joined by some classic black pepper spice and dark chocolate. The palate shows some early mouth-filling roundness before a subtle lattice tannin frame provides genuine structure, balance and control as the wine moves through the mouth.

"Aged for 12–14 months in seasoned oak hogsheads. Characters of ripe blood plums, macerated summer berry fruits and cranberry on a base of spice, dark chocolate, licorice and earth. Medium bodied with a fresh line of acidity, gentle tannin and a medium-length finish with plenty of spicy, black-fruited enjoyment. There is good value here."

Winery & Vintage Info

Schild Estate Wines are created with an authenticity and passion that comes from generations of a family who have made their home in the Southern Barossa.

The Schild Estate Shiraz 2020 vintage comes from a blend of Shiraz grapes from select parcels of vineyards including ‘Workshop’, ‘Angus Brae’ and ‘Three Springs’. Angus Brae is located in Altona between Rowland Flat and Lyndoch, named after Ed Schild’s grandson (Michael’s eldest). Three Springs Farm Vineyard is located at the site of the original family Estate.

This wine is fermented in stainless steel open fermenters before undergoing secondary malolactic fermentation in new and seasoned oak hogsheads. There is a focus on minimal handling and the use of oak for structural framing rather than imparting significant oak flavour. The wine is matured for 12-14 months in barrel before usually undergoing a light filtration and fining if deemed appropriate prior to bottling. Winery Notes
