Bethany Shiraz - First Village 750mL
Tasting Notes
Sourced from some of the finest parcels within the Bethany vineyards, this Shiraz displays all the qualities of fine Barossa Valley Shiraz from an exceptional vintage. A nose of dark, brooding black fruits is shot through with subtly spiced oak and earthy complexity. The palate is rich and ripe with dark fruits perfectly framed by long velvet tannins that carry through to a balanced and elegant finish.
Vintage Comments
Shiraz is of course an exceptional variety for the Barossa Valley and 2017 provided wonderful conditions to allow the variety to shine. Dry conditions throughout the growing season kept vigour under control and the good warmth but lack of heatwaves allowed Shiraz to fully ripen under minimal stress.
Winemaker's Report
Parcels of fruit were harvested and fermented separately prior to being put to oak hogsheads for maturation. The final blend was composed out of barrel with the wine then given time in stainless steel to come together prior to bottling.
A perfectly balanced and poised wine from the cooler 2017 vintage. This wine displays clean fresh red and blue fruit characters as well as fine grained soft tannins that provide the usual plush Barossa Valley structure and length.
Tight black cherries and mulberries offset by rich and generous tannins that envelop the fruit and provide a plush and structured framework. Stony, earthy textures ensuring freshness, drive and ample length
