Shiraz 2017 – Black Market Deal #39214
- Textured, savoury
- Barossa Valley
From one of the oldest, though least known producers in Barossa comes a wine that you won’t wanna put down. From the more elegant 2017 vintage comes a medium-bodied, spicy and seriously delicious shiraz. Dark plums and chocolate, earthy and floral overtones and sweet spices. Silky, dense blueberries and crackles of black pepper. It’s a very stylish wine, and long as anything. Juicy enough to drink alone, it’s also plenty food-friendly. Be warned though - once you pick that glass up, you won’t wanna put it down!

Region
Barossa Valley
'Barossa Valley'. This is Australia's key wine brand overseas, in the US especially. It's our riposte to 'Champagne', 'Scotch' and 'Barolo'. My mind conjures these images, in this order: Shiraz, Penfolds wine, Maggie Beer condiments. All of which can GET - IN - MY - BELLY! But there is so much more to the Barossa than first glance. There are fringe (and not so fringe) winemakers actively working to classify the valley's subregions, and this is a very worthy cause. From Moppa to Seppeltsfield to Marananga there's a lot of variation, and the styles produced can vary immensely. This is the next step in the vision of this region (which, let's face it, is a baby in the scheme of things), as it gets acquainted with its strengths, weaknesses and future opportunities.It's a region that's not sorry to produce the big, fruit-driven wine styles that make it so popular. So drink to the future of the Barossa, because it's as bright as any other region on the world stage.
