Samuels Collection Barossa Valley Shiraz

Pair with dishes such as sage and oregano sausage with sautéed peppers and onions or pasta with lentil bolognese.

Sourced from Barossa vineyards where the vines range from young (approximately 10 - 15 years old) to old (greater than 35 years). They are planted in a diverse range of sites and have slight variations in micro-climates and soil types, including red brown earths, sandy loams or dark clay soils. These variations contribute to the diversity of flavours in Samuel’s Collection Barossa Shiraz. Late winter and spring rains have set the vines up for a high-quality year. The summer was mild with below average daytime temperatures and cool nights, which led to the development of fabulous colour, pristine aromatics and flavours with good natural acidity.

Matured for 10 months in 6% new Hungarian & French hogsheads and barriques. Balance in older hogsheads, barriques and puncheons.
