Dandelion Vineyards “Lionheart of the Barossa” Shiraz, Barossa

Inky purple in colour, this wine opens with intense notes of blackberry jam, rosemary, chocolate, plums and black olive. A dash of new oak adds a toasty caramel note. The palate shows great intensity and concentration underpinned by refreshing acidity and fine tannins.  The fruit for this wine comes from ancient, gnarled vines, many over a hundred years of age. The ancient soils are phylloxera free and the vines ungrafted, thriving on their own roots. ABV 14.5%
