Sorby Adams ‘The Vicar of Toft’ Shiraz 2022, Barossa Valley

Simon ‘Sorby’ Adams has crafted something super special from the outstanding 2022 vintage. From the first moment, the aromas are rich and captivating with blackberry, dark plum and black cherry woven together with cracked pepper, star anise and dark chocolate.

On the palate it’s full-bodied, with real depth and balance. Concentrated black fruit is wrapped in velvety tannins, with layers of cedar, espresso, liquorice, mocha and savoury spice building seamlessly. Everything feels in the right place. Sourced from the Northern Grounds and matured for 36 months in French oak (30% new), the wine shows remarkable depth and integration. The finish is long, precise and remarkably elegant for a wine of this power.

This is the kind of Barossa Shiraz that reminds you why the region produces wines of genuine world-class quality. It has concentration, structure and the capacity to evolve beautifully over decades.

Vino Masters Score: 98/100 ★★★★★ An outstanding Barossa Shiraz of exceptional depth, refinement and longevity.
