Colour

Clean, clear and bright. Cherry color with garnet reflections. Very nice to see.

AROMA:

First contact with the crown where an explosion of red forest fruits is expressed; currants and raspberries, which give way to black, where the hints of blackberries and blueberries appear. Secondly, but with the same intensity, the most earthy and spicy aromas of the same variety stand out, a fact that manages to provide the wine with a balance of unique delicacy.

TASTE:

The palate is the expression and elegance of Syrah taken to unforgettable limits. Species are re-expressed with hints of fruit on a mineral background. Tannins with a fine but persistent structure. Everything perfectly assembled with a long and intense finish of unmatched sincerity.

The perfect companion for Australian gastronomy, what better than to accompany one of the best wines with a Meat Pie or a Burger with the sweet touch of beets. Its spicy touch makes it perfect with a fish Tajin or a chicken Cous-Cous (Arab gastronomy)

After 29 years as an oenologist in Penfolds (the most famous winery in Australia) and more than 40 years of experience with Shiraz, John Duval has been able to get the most elegant version of the Shiraz from Barossa Valley with his personal project. As a curiosity, it is believed that the vineyards of the Barossa valley are the oldest in the world of this variety. A collector's red that has won all the criticism.

Fermentation with the hat immersed in small stainless steel tanks. Some batches remain in contact for more than two weeks.
20 months in 300 liter French oak barrels (60% new) and the rest in used second and third year barrels.
