About the wine
A big red from a bloke who's made the best Shiraz in the world!
The grapes for this classic blend come from ancient Barossa vines — at more than 80 years old, they’re very rare! 2019 was a low yielding vintage too, which means less wine was made but it’s got super intense flavours.
Look out for nifty sour cherry flavours from the Grenache, spicy plum characters from the Shiraz and a savoury edge from the Mataro. And the slightest hint of time in big old oak barrels.
Try and find a wine with this pedigree in bottle shops and you'll be paying anywhere up to 5 times as much!
Best before
The wine will age-but I love this style in that flourish of youth...
Serving advice
Not really- pop and pour!
Food match
A really good Barossa small goods platter-think Linke's Mettwurst, dill cucumbers, Maggie Beer pate...
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Tim Smith
- Many years ago, with fatherhood beckoning, Tim Smith said goodbye to his rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle for a steadier job. He was a lighting technician for big name bands before he saw the light (ha!) and swapped bulbs for barrels in the Barossa. It was the beginning of an epic journey that spans more than 30 years.
- Winemaking took Tim all over the world to France, Portugal and New Zealand as well as vintages at Aussie icons Yalumba, St Hallett, Tatachilla and Chateau Tanunda. And he became very good at it. In 2010, he won 'Best Shiraz in the World' at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in London and brought home a suitcase of Gold Medals from the Berlin Wine Show that same year.
- But after years making wine for someone else, Tim was itching to make his own, with his name on the bottle. With the support of Angels, he now walks to the beat of his own highly successful drum. And as a thank you, he makes three very special reds - just for them. How special? Well, In 2019, he took out the Barossa Winemaker of the Year. So quite special, yes.
