Heirloom Vineyards Kings Garden Barossa Shiraz 2021

RRP $100

The Kings Garden Shiraz 2021 is a confident, structured expression of Barossa Shiraz, combining generosity with control and a strong sense of place.

Deep and concentrated in the glass, it opens with layered aromas of dark fruits, savoury spice and subtle graphite. Notes of black olive tapenade, nutmeg and charred oak add complexity, hinting at both power and restraint.

The palate is full and authoritative, driven by blackcurrant and dark plum fruit, framed by firm graphite-like tannins that give shape. French and American oak is present and well integrated, with a gentle charry edge adding depth. Along with the intensity and concentration, the wine remains well balanced, walking tall with composure.

This is Barossa Shiraz done properly; generous and expressive, yet grounded in structure. A wine that sits comfortably alongside Australia’s leading Shiraz expressions at this level. Impressive!
