Four Men and a Shed Barrel Select Shiraz 2021
About the wine
Expressive Limited Edition Barossa Valley Shiraz
- Here's a rich and regal tapestry of the Barossa - woven by hand from five specially chosen barrels of Shiraz from different sub-regions of the Valley. Stu knows the vineyards and their ancient vines back to front, and has chosen exactly what he needs for the end result.
- Get your senses ready for buckets of rich dark berries, delicious oakey hints, bold tannins, spicy notes and a super long finish. It’s a delight to drink now, but if you can bear to wait, it’ll get softer and smoother up to another 15 years.
- A very limited edition and one-time offering, take a sip and you’ll understand why Stuey was crowned Barossa Winemaker of the Year in 2020.
Best before

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Stuart Bourne
- Why did Stuart go down the wild winemaking path? To be able to drink his homework of course! Working right alongside three of his closest mates is the cherry on the top of this winemaking guru's story so far.
- He was originally a graduate in both Anatomy and Pharmacology. Since winemaking combines every discipline of Science, it appeals to the geek within. He loves tasting his experiments and now has 20 Australian vintages under his belt!
- For Stuart, it is the local growing families that continue to be the beating heart of the Barossa's world famous brilliance generation after generation. His passion for the Barossa has led to plenty of career highlights, like making it into the Top 100 Wines of the World in The Wine Spectator. Having a wine that he made served to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II also wasn't a bad day at the office!
