'A classic Barossa shiraz that effortlessly marries remarkable intensity and concentration with elegance and finesse. Deeply concentrated, its vibrant, minty and briary aromas of blackcurrants and red berries are backed by cedar/dark chocolate oak. Rather closed, it slowly unfolds layers of dark berry and plum-like flavour knit tightly with dusty, fine-grained oak, culminating in a long, lingering finish of meaty, wild berry flavour, dark olives and robust, but pliant tannin. Drink 2014-2022+.'

'The 2002 Stonewell Shiraz was barrel fermented and aged in new French and American oak hogsheads. The fruit was sourced from several of the Barossa's top addresses. It offers up aromas of toasty oak, spice box (cinnamon, clove, nutmeg), asphalt, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. This is followed by a structured, tightly wound wine in which black fruits and chocolate make an appearance. It will benefit from another 8-10 years in the cellar and should drink well through 2027.
