From the far south and far north of the Barossa (avoiding the centre), matured in mostly French oak (70% new) with a small portion of American, for 19 months. A rich, complex and layered shiraz with blood plum and blackberry varietal fruit, the one fairly obvious question whether less new oak would have made a better wine - and yes, it would have.
