AU Berton Vineyards Winemaker’s Reserve Barossa Shiraz

A truly excellent Shiraz.

This Reserve Shiraz was fermented in separate parcels, then pressed and left in stainless steel for malolactic fermentation, after which it was racked into barrels for approximately 12 months maturation in new and old French and American oak. The best barrels were then blended and filtered for bottling and a dash of High Eden Shiraz was added for extra complexity and spice.

 

The Winemakers Reserve Barossa Shiraz is an extreme example of Australian Shiraz: with deep colour and intense fruit, this Shiraz from Barossa will not disappoint!
