94/100 Points (Huon Hooke)
Note: Minor Label Scuffing
A blend of Barossa Valley (75%) and Eden Valley (25%) fruit, the Barossa Valley contributes plushness and concentration whilst the Eden Valley component brings elegance and structure to the blend. The average age of vines is 50 years old and maturation takes place in a mixture of new (15%) and seasoned French oak for a period of 20 months. 2018 was a high quality vintage for the Barossa with Shiraz one of the stand out varieties.
Dense pitch black core with an equally deep dark purple black hue. Soaring aromatics of dark plum, ripe blackberries, liquorice and hints of dark chocolate waft through the nostrils trailed by vanillin cedar, traces of earthy fennel and spice notes. Dense and concentrated, the palate is brimming with rich seductive fruits that power through to an extravagantly long finish. Plump dark plum, ripe blackberry, liquorice and black cherry flavours have a voluptuous textural feel and are set against a back drop of vanillin oak, earthy dark chocolate, fennel and spice. Velvet like tannins have a sturdy underbelly. Exceptionally long and lavish conclusion.

Your Questions, Answered
What do you need from me to get started?
We will need you to confirm that you are over 18 (for obvious reasons!) and to open an account by registering on the site. This will include provision of credit card details for any eventual purchases. You will also need to sign that you have read the terms and conditions.
How many wines are in each Lot?
You will see the quantity (number of bottles) stated above the price. Please note that the bid-price is per bottle so you will need to multiply the price by the number of bottles in the lot to calculate the total price of the lot.
Can I cancel my bid if I change my mind?
All bids are final - please think before you confirm your bid.
How much is the Buyers' Commission?
We have an extremely competitive buyers' commission of 16.5% (GST inclusive). This will be added to the final winning price of your Lot at the end of the auction.
What are your freight charges?
Please see our Delivery Policy for full details relating to freight.
Is there a Guarantee on my wine?
Under Australian law, consumer guarantees do not apply to goods purchased at auction - all such purchases are at the risk of the Buyer. We will always provide as much detail as we can as to the visual condition and provenance of each Lot, however this is done so as a guide rather than as a guarantee.
