Frederick Old Vine BLK 398 Shiraz Grenache 2021, Barossa Valley 

A vibrant and beautifully composed expression of Barossa Shiraz Grenache, combining bright red cherry fruits with darker currant characters, savoury spice and well-integrated oak. The palate is generous, mouth-filling and richly flavoured, with layers of juicy red fruits, dark currants and savoury oak providing impressive richness, depth and structure. There is a lovely freshness and energy running through the wine, supported by firm yet polished tannins and an earthy mineral undertone. The fruit and oak work harmoniously, delivering complexity without compromising vibrancy. The finish is long, savoury and beautifully balanced, with lingering dark fruits and fine tannins. A richly textured and thoroughly engaging Barossa blend that showcases impressive vitality and character.
