Chateau Tanunda Grand Barossa Shiraz
Heirloom Barossa Shiraz
"Skilfully made, pushing the boundary of ripeness to a point where the richness of the Barossa (and shiraz) is expressed without becoming overdone. Blackberry, blueberry, sweet spice and almost (but not fully) dried fruit aromas fill the bouquet, and the palate is a flowing wave of juicy plummy flavour with a seasoning of French oak and supple, fine-grained tannin." 95 points, James Halliday Wine Companion, August 2017.
Heirloom Vineyards Barossa Shiraz
This wine has an intense bright purple hue and an inkier royal red carpet colour closer to the centre of the glass. The aroma is an astonishing and lifted brace of blackberries, spice and even a perfume like touch of blueberries. Pure fruit and spice that is not in any way overwhelmed by winemaking artefact. The wine has a concentration of aromas that come from not over-ripe fruits. The smells change quickly in the glass and are fascinating to follow but the mouth beckons. There is quite a remarkable entry to the palate. A seamless soft but structured shiraz, lots of blackberries again for sure but also a mid-palate dark chocolate spice that whooshes through the mouth that you want to slow it down and check it out. There is some cream and spice from the French Oak and an almost chalk like tannin structure but it's all about the pure fruit.
