Dark chocolate freshly grated, liqueur chocolates, blood plums reduced, dried citrus peel and a whiff of fresh white pepper. Rosemary flowers in Spring. Enticing and alluring, morphing from aromatics that are dark and deep to those that are fresh and pert. A textural experience: savoury and dry, yet still with the Barossa’s richness, depth and succulence. Hence a wonderful counter-play of the brooding and the bright. There’s length and line drawn out by neat acidity, and then superfine tannins that keep the wine aloft and alive. Plenty of plum and earth flavours that slowly uncoil in your glass over a proper dinner.
