Description
The irony of independence you rarely achieve it standing alone … so the slogan says on this fine blend of Barossa Shiraz (50%) and Mataro (50%) a reference to the grape growers who have helped Teusner achieve greatness. The fruit was sourced from low yielding. ancient vines in the Northern Barossa “ Ebenezer. Kalimna and Moppa. Kym Teusner says As always the winemaking is hands off and we let the fruit tell its own story. The result is a brooding. complex wine that sings of the earth from where it came and the toil of our growers that tend the vines….two things that we at Teusner are very proud of. We are impressed with the quality here following a challenging vintage in 2011…no doubt rigorous fruit selection did the trick and quality came up trumps…. Gold Medal Adelaide Wine show is testament to this.
92 Points “ A sensational young and bright red that marries together two classic red varietals that shine bright in the Barossa. blue fruits. red berries and lovely dark purple floral lift too. really alluring wine.
