Seppeltsfield, a historic estate in the Barossa Valley, is renowned for its rich tapestry of vineyards and commitment to crafting wines that reflect the essence of the region. The 2021 Barossa Shiraz exemplifies this dedication, offering a harmonious blend of tradition and modern winemaking.
- WINEMAKER: Fiona Donald
- FARMING: Certified sustainable through Sustainable Winegrowing Australia
- VARIETY: 100% Shiraz
- TERROIR: Estate vineyards spanning the western ridge of the Barossa Valley, situated at elevations between 180-350 meters above sea level. Soil profiles include red-brown earth over limestone and sand over clay, contributing to the wine's complexity.
- VINIFICATION: Grapes are 100% destemmed and undergo 7-10 days on skins in 8-ton open fermenters within the historic 1888 Gravity Cellar. This gravity-fed process ensures gentle extraction of color, flavor, and tannin. Following fermentation, the wine is matured in a combination of stainless steel tanks and well-seasoned French hogsheads.
- AGING: Matured in a combination of stainless steel tanks and well-seasoned French hogsheads
- TASTING NOTES: Aromas of lifted dark cherry and liqueured Davidson plum fruit are complemented by complex brown spices. The palate reveals ripe fruits, subtle floral notes, black pepper, and polished oak spices, achieving a balance between classic Barossa boldness and elegant structure.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: This Shiraz pairs beautifully with slow-roasted lamb shanks or a decadent dark chocolate torte, enhancing the dining experience.
- SCORES: James Suckling: 93 point
