Hart of the Barossa Ye Brave Shiraz 2022
$50, 15.4% alcohol, screwcap, Barossa Valley.

The Barossa Valley shiraz was grown on a vineyard that was planted in 1902, in the Vine Vale sub-region.

This is pure velvet. It tastes of saturated plums and cedarwood, blackcurrant and cream, mint and whispers of peppercorn. It’s mouth-filling, soft, seductive and satisfying, its warm heart of toasty flavour reaching deep and offering plenty. If you like Barossa Shiraz the way they used to make them; you will love this. 93+ points.
