Schild Estate Mick’s Workshop Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
95 Points
Bright and deeply coloured in the glass, this Shiraz immediately speaks of Barossa generosity and site expression. Aromas of blackberry compote, dark cherry and blood plum merge beautifully with notes of licorice, star anise, pepper and smoked meats. Hints of violet, cocoa and warm spice add lift and complexity. The palate is full-flavoured yet poised, delivering layers of rich dark fruits, dark chocolate and savoury spice framed by fine, chocolatey tannins. Oak is seamlessly integrated, supporting rather than dominating. The finish is long, savoury and satisfying, leaving a lasting impression of Barossa depth and craftsmanship.
A superbly expressive single-vineyard Shiraz of power, polish and place.
