Block 11, located at the top of the hill, has shallow sandy loam soil over limestone and sandstone. These vines are very exposed to the wind and sun. As a consequence, the vines mature earlier in most years and tend to be low yielding, with intense fruit concentration and powerful tannins. The rest of the Hillside Shiraz is located farther down the hill, in New Block 6, where dark chocolate loam and clay soil dispersed with quartz and ironstone over silty limestone. The New Block 6 component provides the finesse and elegance to the overall blend with savoury flavours and tight structure. The blend of these two vineyards is a perfect balance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #261d14; font-family: Assistant, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eFrom 6- to 34-year-old vines, the 2004 Shiraz Hillside spent 28 months in American oak, 50% new and 50% used.

It is protected from harsh winds during the growing season by its surrounding geography.

The parcels are determined usually by the variation in soil throughout the vineyard, with certain areas being picked before others depending on ripeness. The very best barrel is then selected and bottled on its own.

Totally opaque black crimson colour with black crimson hue. Aroma of dark chocolate, spice, ripe plum and violets – a delightful sniff.

Deep purple in color, it has an enticing, expressive bouquet of smoke, bacon, game, and blueberry. Opulent on the palate, the wine is full-bodied, layered, spicy, ripe, and mouth-filling. The tannins are well-concealed but should permit 5-7 years of evolution in the cellar. Drink this top-notch effort through 2025. The Kay Brothers Amery Winery and Vineyards was founded in 1890 and continues to be 100% owned by the Kay family.

The growing season was near on perfect. An ideal vintage, which gave us the benefit of perfectly, ripened fruit. The smooth flow of vintage allowed us to select specific fruit parcels and allowed us to define the wine as much in the vineyard as the winery. These grapes are brought into the winery, and crushed into old vats where the fermentation is initiated by “wild” yeasts found on the grape skins. Careful extraction and short post fermentation maceration is followed by soft pressing. The wine is transferred into brand new oak barrels where the malolactic fermentation is completed before racking and maturation for a further 24 months in barrels. A careful assemblage and barrel selection is followed by minimal filtration and bottling then further ageing prior to release.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PAF70","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41373325099071,"sku":"687-EB-L2-36","price":64.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/7674\/7071\/files\/oQMThLHx4n.jpg?v=1739451319"},{"product_id":"viking-wines-grand-shiraz-cabernet-barossa-valley-2003-750ml","title":"2003 Viking Wines Grand Shiraz Cabernet","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eCork Closure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eBarossa Valley\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eActual Bottles Pictured\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eProfessionally Cellared\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eAlc \u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: bold; line-height: inherit;\"\u003e14.5%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: bold; line-height: inherit;\"\u003eSold per bottle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f3436; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eA magnificent blend of 50% Shiraz and 50% Cabernet that offers superb opulent drinking now.

Until 3-4 decades ago, many Australian wineries were better known for their fortified than dry table wines. For whatever reason, many of these fortifieds fell out of favor in Australia, and have never received the respect they deserve given how spectacular many can be. Rick Burge’s ancestors always made fortified wines, and kept the soleras active during their lifetimes. After many years, Rick Burge decided to begin bottling some of these old fortified wines. There are five different offerings, all of them stunningly rich and intense. I suspect most of them are extremely old, although no records were kept, so it is impossible to know the average age of the solera for each of these cuvees. No one will be disappointed in these spectacular non-vintage fortifieds.

Here, the 2022 offers vibrant red fruit, gently grainy\/finely milled tannin and a core of redcurrant, cassis, raspberry pip, a hint of nori and layers of dried herbs. I feel that it's more in line with the 2020, and this is a good thing. \u003cbr\u003eThe tannins are profuse and pervasive, and it is shaped very much in the manner of a lovely future wine.

Here, the 2022 offers vibrant red fruit, gently grainy\/finely milled tannin and a core of redcurrant, cassis, raspberry pip, a hint of nori and layers of dried herbs. I feel that it's more in line with the 2020, and this is a good thing.\u003cbr\u003eThe tannins are profuse and pervasive, and it is shaped very much in the manner of a lovely future wine. My only slight quibble hangs over the persistence of fruit, which while vibrant right now, may not have the depth of the 2020, 2021 or 2019.

Due to the Spring and early summer being challenging, particularly around the flowering, yields were reduced, and while that has impacted the volume of Larose, the wine is reflective of that small yield with huge concentration.

Initially the bouquet reveals lifted florals of crushed violets and lavender, followed by the primary fruit characters of dark forest berries, black plums and cassis. The secondary spice characters, clove and thyme are layered with leather and a hint of freshly roasted dark coffee. The tannins are firm and well structured. There is massive fruit weight, which balances the natural acidity perfectly. The persistence on the palate is massive this wine goes forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: #333333; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003eThe 2010 Larose has a beautiful density that is fused with elegance. The nose is packed with dark berries, bracken, leaves, plums and licorice, and cedary oak adds sweet spicy allure- this is looking super-fresh and composed. The palate has the sort of tannin texture that all Cabernet winemakers dream of: sturdy, chalky fine tannins that draw sweet, ripe dark berry flavour long and deep, composed and full of elegantly stated authority.

This wine is inky! Visually and organoleptically. Massive amplitude on the nose, with dark brooding aromas of black currant, blackberry compote, and dark plum, followed by cocoa, cedar, and a hint of savoury spice. At this young age it’s already very forward and open on the nose, and is a wine you can swirl and sniff for an eternity before finally putting it in your mouth. When you do, the sweetness of the fruit across the mid-palate is what first strikes you, then the massive concentration and ripe, firm structure frame the fruit explosion beautifully, so the wine is at once voluptuous but also poised. The 2021 is a wine that has massive cellaring potential despite its forward nature at this stage, and I would confidently say that it has at least 20 years in a prime drinking window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: #333333; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: #333333; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eVINTAGE NOTES\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: #333333; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003e2021 started with a wetter than usual spring and early summer that put disease pressure on early.
