Since its inception in 1980, the focus for Old Block has been to showcase the rare and ancient vines of the Barossa. To qualify for Old Block Shiraz, vineyards must be planted on their own rootstock and be older than 40 years of age.
These ancient vines produce small crop levels, resulting in seamless wines of complexity and longevity,
TASTING NOTES
This wine has intense ruby colour with purple hues. A complex and elegant nose with hints of dark fruits, rich dark chocolate and cinnamon spice. A vibrant and elegant wine on the palate, it offers rich fruit notes of satsuma and damson plums with layers of rich dark chocolate, and complex spices of cinnamon, cedar oak with hints of black pepper and nutmeg. The wine has a long and well-defined acid backbone, with a harmonious and long finish.
