Deep crimson with purple hues. An intense aroma of ripe Satsuma plum, mocha, vanilla, and savoury notes combined with hints of cedar and sweet spices. Rich palate, sweet fruit is balanced wonderfully with briary, sweet spices and lovely, silky tannins. A full-bodied, textural wine, showing great complexity with hints of cedar and allspice flowing through to the lengthy, bramble fruit finish.

Great length and drive…

Medium to deep ruby red. Mulberry, mocha, and coconut oil aromatics all lift from the glass. Palate is weighty with dark fruits and cola spices yet for all its intensity there’s a vibrancy that surprises. Great length and drive: it sits in a unique pathway across the tongue that contrasts amazing intensity with a unique subtlety. Serious shiraz that shows a gifted understanding of the fruit.

The 2017 Lineage Barossa Shiraz is a blend of 87% Syrah and 13% Cabernet Sauvignon. This is the first release of this wine, and interestingly (wisely, in my opinion), Langmeil split the bottling between screw cap (26 dozen) and cork (87 dozen). The fruit here was from vines over 100 years old and was matured in French oak (64% new) for 24 months. Shiraz Cabernet is, of course, the quintessentially Aussie blend, and it is out in force here today. This is powerful and dense, with plenty of oak, and the wine has attributes from both varieties: plushness and mouth-filling satisfaction from the Shiraz and tannic structure and drive from the Cabernet. Are they better together? The shape of the tannins through the finish suggests that this will need quite some years to come around, but it will certainly live for decades in the cellar. Longevity and power.
