With a profound inky black hue, this wine exudes intense aromas of liquorice, blackberry, and dark plum, mingled with hints of vanillin cedar, scorched earth, and pepper. On the palate, it delivers an explosion of rich blackberry, dark plum, and liquorice flavors, accompanied by notes of blueberry, spicy cedar, dark chocolate, and subtle earthiness. Velvety tannins and fresh acidity provide a robust yet balanced structure to this opulent and concentrated wine.

This robust Barossa Shiraz originates from a single block situated high on the hill of the Hentley Farm Estate. It undergoes maturation in French oak, with 60% new oak, for a duration of 22 months.
