Full Description

A monumental, blockbuster red wine from the western edge of the Barossa Valley, South Australia.Known for its unashamedly opulent and incredibly powerful style, this vintage stands out for its staggering concentration and high natural alcohol volume (17% ABV), which manages to retain impressive balance through sheer fruit intensity. Colour: Totally saturated black-purple with a dense ink-like cling to the glass, fading to a deep brick-garnet rim with bottle age. Nose: A brooding and explosive bouquet featuring smoke, dark chocolate, vanilla, and spice. It is layered with secondary complexities of lavender, damp earth, game, and deep blueberry liqueur. Palate: A massive block of flavour that is incredibly dense and compressed. It floods the palate with unctuous, velvety waves of liquorice, blackberry, plum, and black pepper. The wood spices and rich cocoa notes are immense, wrapped in an extraordinarily generous, full-bodied structure. Finish: Exceptionally long and very peppery, framed by firm, fine-grained tannins and a lingering, warm, smoky American oak presence.
