Stonefish NERO Old Vines Shiraz

The Shiraz fruit for this wine was carefully selected from the best old vines in the Barossa Valley. It was de-stemmed and fermented in open fermentors with pump overs twice daily before resting in French Oak Hogshead barrels for 2 years before bottling. Concentrated and opulent aromas of blackberry, plum, black cherry and cassis burst from the glass with fervour. These wonderful aromatics carry through to a supple and velvety palate with beautifully balanced acidity which give the wine a vibrant energy. Black fruit characters abound on the palate, backed by spice, dark chocolate, licorice and oak. This wine shows perfect tension between ripe fruit, bright acidity and a smooth seductive tannins that provide wonderful length. Enjoy now or cellar for up to 10 years.
