Pressings are also kept separate for later blending, resulting in a wine of great complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"elementtoproof\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt;\"\u003eThe 2023 vintage began with excellent spring rainfall, followed by a long, slow ripening season with no days exceeding 40°C. The wine was aged for two years in predominantly older French and American oak, with less than 10% new oak, followed by a further year of bottle ageing before release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"elementtoproof\" style=\"margin-bottom: 9.0pt;\"\u003eDisplaying dark fruit and a tightly wound structure in its youth, the 2023 is a potential sleeper with excellent ageing prospects. Decant if enjoying young to allow its depth and complexity to unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Barossa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67731136086297,"sku":"6196","price":175.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/7831\/0937\/files\/IMG_3087-4.jpg?v=1761109628","url":"https:\/\/nationalwinecentrestore.com.au\/products\/rockford-basket-press-shiraz-2023","provider":"National Wine Centre of Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
