The Octavius Barossa Old Vine Shiraz

Shiraz 2006

Vintage quality:
Despite the early heat and mid-vintage rains, vintage 2006 has produced wonderfully aromatic wines with rich textures and full palates.
Cellar guide:
15+ Years
Last tasted:
April 2008, Kevin Glastonbury, Winemaker
Notes:
This wine is a deep bold red purple showing exotic fig and plum sauce, mocha and black liquorice notes. The wine is dense and brooding, showing sweet Shiraz fruit concentration and fine seamless tannins. Long and lush through the finish, it has great integration, style and elegance. 1 Trophy, 1 Commendation, 4 Gold
