For our Grand Barossa Shiraz we select grapes grown throughout the Barossa and its myriad sub-regions. It is this tapestry of 'terroirs' which enables us to create our classic and refined house style. By combining both traditional and modern winemaking techniques we are able to make handcrafted wines of complexity, depth and intensity. Lifted aromas of blackberry, plum and black pepper are accompanied by spicy, dark berry fruits on the palate. The finish is long with fine-grained tannins from 18 months maturation in a combination of new and seasoned American and French oak barrels. Enjoy now or cellar carefully for up to ten years from vintage. John R. Geber
