"Deep, saturated purple. Explosive aromas of blackberry preserves, creme de cassis, high-fat chocolate, espresso, molasses and candied flowers. Sweet, spicy flavors of blackcurrant and cherry preserves show outstanding concentration and focus, along with jaw-dropping clarity. Wonderfully lush and silky wine, with remarkable purity and vibrancy of fruit flavor. Endless finish features luscious but focused blackberry flavor and harmonious tannins."

Renowned for powerful, richly fruited Shiraz, most famously from the Barossa Valley, alongside age-worthy Cabernet and cool-climate whites. A warm climate and old, ungrafted vines produce wines of generosity and depth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
