[SOLD-OUT] Head Wines The Blonde Shiraz 2019

 

"26yo Stonewell vines. Wild fermented; matured in 40% new French oak hogsheads and puncheons. Named in honour of limestone bedrock, this is a Barossa shiraz that presents depth and definition with life and space. Crunchy, tangy blackberries and satsuma plums are framed in finely honed tannins and energetic acid line. Dark chocolate French oak rightly leaves the main game to classy fruit. Great length and potential." - Tyson Stelzer

 

"100% Shiraz from Stone Well (80%) and Menglers Hill (20%). Average age of vines is 30 years, with 30% new French oak.

Fragrant with musky rosy perfume, creamy chocolate and vanilla, black and blue fruits. It’s succulent and supple, with fine stony, yet chewy tannin, an ample volume of purple fruit, and a long and controlled chocolaty finish, plus a little sage and grilled meat. Typical style for this wine, although perhaps a little deeper and darker than usual." - Gary Walsh, Wine Front
