Winery review: If you are looking for the kind of Shiraz that won’t blow your budget and delivers an enormous swathe of flavour then you should jump on this wine. Made by the talented winemaking team at Shotfire Ridge in the Barossa it ‘s actually sourced from the nearby Eden Valley so it’s full of cool climate elegance. It's got spicy aromas and smells of rich, black fruits. Its rich with fruit and spice with a hint of oak ad impressive tannins. A very impressive barbecue wine that goes down far too easily.
Additional winemaker notes: I liked this Shiraz, which was new for me. I haven't cared for Shiraz thus far. IT was citrusy, and almost jammy. It had an initial sweetness, which I think I was confusing for the fruitiness. Overall a great wine! I did not try it with food.
