An individual vineyard expression of Koonunga Shiraz that arrives gently, almost understated. The richness and power of Barossa Shiraz has been harnessed into something finer. Slowly unfolds in blue fruits, plum, black cherry with a lively spiciness. Everything here is toned down, leaving the drinker with a lasting sense and taste of elegance, finesse. The palate is laid out on even-handed tannins with good concentration carrying a long thread of spice through to the finish.
