Shiraz 2019 – Black Market Deal #39726
- Medium bodied
- Hunter Valley
2019 was an extremely dry year in the Hunter. Not necessarily good news for the stress levels of winemakers, but it did lead to fantastic concentration and acidity in the wines. This shiraz is blended from two different blocks in a single vineyard, both harvested at optimum ripeness. Twelve months in 35% new French oak added some lovely structure and layering to an already stellar wine. It’s quite savoury, spicy and full, finishing with fine grained tannins and great length. If Hunter shiraz is your thing, then this wine is a must have at the table.

Region
Hunter Valley
The Hunter Valley is one of the brightest jewels in Australia's vinous crown. Not only does the region produce some of the best Shiraz and alternative reds in the country, but it has a style of white unique in the world of wine: Hunter Semillon. This is the White Burgundy of Australia in more ways than one, and even used to be labelled as such in the early days. No other place can produce such intense, low alcohol, seemingly light Semillons that blossom with age into full-bodied, massively complex wines that can age for decades. Producers the likes of Tyrrell's and Brokenwood take Hunter to new heights, year upon year.
