Deep, opaque garnet with an almost black core. Powerful aromas of blackberry, black plum and ripe blueberry unfold, interwoven with dark chocolate, liquorice and sweet baking spices.

The palate is super-rich and intensely flavour-packed, with exceptional concentration. Plush dark fruits dominate, layered with mocha, cocoa, anise and savoury spice. Fine-grained, velvety tannins provide outstanding structure, while perfectly integrated French oak adds seamless texture. Fresh, natural savoury acidity carries the wine through an exceptionally long, pristine finish.

Vino Masters Score: 98/100 ★★★★★ A magnificent old-vine Barossa Shiraz of extraordinary concentration, elegance and world-class cellaring potential.

Songs to make this wine really sing; put on St Germain’s Boulevard, pull the cork and press play.
