King of the Barossa Shiraz 2023, Barossa Valley

King of the Barossa Shiraz 2023, Barossa Valley

Opaque crimson with a purple rim. Blackberry, black plum and blueberry, then liquorice, cracked pepper, dark chocolate and a little mocha. Rich and full. Concentrated fruit, plush and velvety, fine tannin underneath. Plum, blackberry, cocoa and savoury spice through the middle, acid keeping the weight honest. Long, powerful finish. Barossa with its chest out.

Vino Masters Score: 94/100 ★★★★★ Intense dark fruit, firm tannins and a Barossa melting pot of flavours.
