Double Barrel Shiraz has a full and generous palate with a beguiling mix of sweet red fruits and dark chocolate indicative of its origins as Barossa Shiraz. Subtle toasty vanillin derives from aging in traditional French and American oak wine barrels. The careful use of aged Scotch whisky barrels for finishing has added complex nuances of almond-husks and also softened the dense tannins to yield an incredible smoothness.
Barossa Valley, South Australia, Australia
Deep, rich red/purple colour. Aromas of dark chocolate and nutmeg, stewed plums, brown spices and cocoa-powder. Coconutty American oak showed with time in the glass. The wine is full-bodied and rich, dense and weighty with lots of stuffing and just enough tannin to hold it from turning syrupy on the finish. Instead, the follow-through is savoury and drying. It would reward a little cellaring. Good value.
