Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

Colour

The colour is deep inky red with burgundy hues and long alcohol legs coating the sides of the glass.

Aroma

The bouquet is typical Barossa, luscious ripe berries with earthy spice and charred oak. The aroma lingers and grows in the glass as the wine warms to room temperature revealing ground roasted coffee, licorice and eucalyptus. Allow time to breathe and embrace the rustic charm.

Palate

This wine was made in traditional hand crafted style in open concrete vats with the cap plunged 3 times a day during fermentation and the must “pumped over” regularly to gently release the maximum flavour without hard pressing and extraction. The finished wine was naturally settled and matured in 3 – 4 year old oak hogsheads. The final flavours are savoury and delicious with full bodied tannins and a rich, dry finish.

Food Matching

This is a sophisticated wine for full flavoured dishes; juicy seared steaks, grilled lamb chops or slow roasted lamb shanks.

Cellaring Potential

My Reserve series wines are matured and ready to enjoy on release. They are great drinking now and will provide continual enjoyment for many years.
