About the wine
Super premium rich South Australian Shiraz!
- Sourced from old Eden Valley and Barossa Valley vines, this super premium shiraz is modelled after a wine extremely close to Sorby’s heart - he made the iconic Yalumba Octavius from inception in 1988 through to 1999.
- It’s rich, juicy red and blue berry flavours carry an underlying hit of mocha and coffee. This delicious character is a result of maturing in French oak barrels that have had special red carpet treatment before coopering. The oak character is powerful and unique!
- it’s a superb example of a fine South Aussie red by a legendary winemaker. The amazing length of flavour and richness will reward cellaring for at least 15 years, if you can bear to wait!
Best before
15 - 20 years.
Serving advice
No need for decanting until at least 2028.
Food match
It has to be char grilled sirloin steak cooked on a pellet smoker!
Contains sulphites
