The 2021 Spirit of Place Shiraz hails from 103-year-old vines in the Barossa Valley. Aromatically, it leads with masses of black berry fruit, cherry, licorice, dark chocolate and star anise. In the mouth, the wine is inky and thick, the tannins embedded so deeply into the fruit that it is a challenge to determine where they start and finish. It is undeniably excellent, with black, silty tannins that settle, rather the inhibit. This comes from Ebenezer in Barossa, planted in 1918. It's an astounding wine. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under Diam and wax.

In the heart of the Barossa Valley, nestled amidst the sub-region of Ebenezer, there exists a hidden gem— a 100+ year-old Shiraz vineyard.

Hand cultivated since 1918, its gnarled vines tell tales of generations past, each carrying the wisdom & spirit of more than a century of pioneering growers and farmers.

In our 2021 growing season, one block of Shiraz stood out, it’s quality too good to ignore. Thus ‘Spirit of Place’ was created, a Shiraz that reflects the distinctive red brown clay soil and embodies over a century of viticultural history and pioneering spirit.

COLOUR | Deep concentrated black in colour 

AROMA | Complex aromas of earth, tar, wood fire, smoke, moss rock, mint, dried herb and sautéed plums complete the picture.

PALATE | The dense and layered fruits take off like a rocket in your mouth. The acid and tannins take off, chasing after the fruits trying to reign it all in, and what a job it does. 

My favourite aspect of this wine is the finish. It motors along into the late palate with a whiplash of chocolate and rich berried fruits, singing along slowly.

This wines’ evolution in the cellar has been very interesting to capture over the past 18 months, I have shared a love/hate relationship with this bottling, always hoping it would live up to its early promise in barrel. I am very happy that now, post bottling it has exceeded my expectations... wow! This is simply delicious and shows the magic that only a truly great 100+ year old vineyard can possess. Lock and load, be brave and cellar this bottling for 15+ years and it will age at a snail’s pace, this is a richly rewarding adventure.
