2023 Heirloom Vineyards A'Lambra Barossa Shiraz
Tax included.
Dark and yet bright and as if it could shine black light at midnight. Powdered concentrate of plum extract used to flavour Elven bread. Moss on a dark ravine’s sunless wall. Mint and blackberry intertwined in some fairytale ending. A blend of all the aromatics of the Barossa and the barest bouquet of the lady-winemaker’s art (or is that deception?) Aniseed and blackberry and eucalyptus and raisins; cedar and vanilla and the bloodied sawdust of a butcher’s shop floor. Heroic and harmful and on the wing. Fine red wine - which we submit this is - is always about a sweet-spot. The
line between fruit ripeness and fruit savouriness. It can seem apparent in some wines; in others it has a quiet reserve. This wine has a diving-bell depth of black fruits; yet in the next sip those same fruits seem to soar, as if in Spring flower. Tannins then trail as if in clouds of glory - or are they a dark wake in a gravel sea? You need another glass to see.

Buying At Auction?
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.
