Robert O’Callaghan's expressive Rockford Basket Press Shiraz pays homage to the Barossa's 19th and early 20th-century legacy. Crafted from grapes harvested from 60 to 140-year-old dry-grown vineyards, primarily sourced from independent growers spanning various Barossa soils, altitudes, and micro-climates, this wine embodies a rare and significant post-colonial Australian aesthetic.

Highlighting red and black fruits, subtle walnut notes, hints of vanilla/cedar oak, and a rosy perfume, it leans towards a medium-bodied profile, showcasing freshness, along with nutty and savory flavors complemented by a vibrant fruitiness. The tannins provide a gentle grip and graininess, leading to a finish characterized by fragrance and admirable length. Overall, a highly commendable release that embodies the classic Rockford style.
