2021 Atze’s Corner Eddies Old Vine Shiraz

Named in honour of the two Barossans who planted a vineyard in 1912, the Eddies Old Vine Shiraz is a blend of this century plus vineyard along with fruit from a 73 year old vineyard and a block planted in 1975. Maturation took place in French oak hogsheads of which 50% were new for a period of 30 months.
Outstanding colour featuring a super dense and saturating inky black core along with an equally deep black dark red hue. Sent wafting through the nostrils are potent scents of ripe blackberry, liquorice, dark plum and mocha followed by vanillin oak, earthy dark chocolate and spice notes. Rich and voluptuous, the full bodied palate is layered with a thick coating of blackberry, liquorice, dark plum and dark chocolate fruits. Toasty vanillin oak, earthy mocha and spice elements lie underneath. Bold, dense and possessing exceptional power it has a firm yet velvety tannin structure. Concludes very long and opulent yet robust.
Drink over the next 8-10 years.
