Personalised Rockbare The Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021 14% 750ml
Sourced from two small blocks across the central and western ridge of Barossa Valley. Shiraz from the Barossa Valley has long been held in high regards as one of Australia’s premier producing regions. Its 19th Century origins and early European settlers, particularly of German and Silesian descent have created a rich history in Australian wine.
VINIFICATION The 2021 Shiraz is from a number of small blocks in central and western ridge of Barossa Valley. The fruit was machine picked with a Selective harvester and crushed into small open fermenters and remained on skins for two weeks. The wine was then matured in seasoned French oak barriques and hogsheads for 12 months before bottling in November 2023.
COLOURS Deep garnet with a youthful violet hue.
NOSE Blackberries, cherry and plum skin aromas, fragrantly supported by baking spices, star anise, black olive, and dark chocolate.
PALATE A medium bodied plush wine, but still fresh and distinctive with the power and concentration of refined primary fruits. A core of blackberry and plum, with fantastic lively & textural tannins, supporting the fruit, right through to the finish.
FOOD MATCH Well suited to a rare roasted saddle of venison or try with a premium cut of rare dry aged beef. Also compliments a good vintage cheddar.
