EXPERT REVIEWS

DAVE BROOKES
96 Points

This year's Johann's Garden is 92/8% grenache/mataro grown in the Barossa Valley, vinified separately and aged in seasoned French hogsheads for 10 months. Magenta-splashed crimson in the glass with super-pure fruit tones on display: red and dark plum, blueberry and boysenberry with underlying hints of exotic spice, gingerbread, purple floral tones, teacake, rhubarb, cherry clafoutis and mountain herbs. Succulent yet tending savoury on the finish with a real sense of purity and grace; superfine powdery tannin lending gentle support and a bright, mineral line.

VINTAGE NOTES
The 2020 vintage will be remembered for excellent quality wines from the Eden Valley, Barossa Valley and Adelaide Hills, albeit a meagre production due to reduced yields cause by a number of poor conditions at flowering and the extremely dry Winter, Spring and Summer of 2019/2020. The grapes ripened in near perfect conditions, resulting in optimal and excellent wine quality (colour, aromatics, flavours and tannin maturity). Bunches were loose and pristine, while the yield remained quite low, at about 10% of average. The 2020 red wines are intense in colour, exceptionally fragrant, spicy and well-structured.

CELLARING POTENTIAL
10+ years from vintage.

APPEARANCE
Medium garnet with garnet hues.

AROMA
Vibrant aromas of raspberry compote, red currant, plum and black cherry, with a subtle pink grapefruit lift, crushed flowering herbs, white pepper and hints of anise and mace.

PALATE
The palate is juicy and plush, with red currant, spiced cherry and plum carried by mature, velvety tannins and well balanced acidity providing length and freshness.
