Glen Eldon Twisted Trunk Reserve Shiraz 2022

Wow, from the first look at the opaque colour to the intensity on the nose and the rich generosity of the palate, you know you are on to something special here. It comes off old Barossa vines that were planted in 1865 and were then made with largely traditional methods. This was a very good year and it shows here. Dark licorice and ripe black fruits burst from the glass. The tannins are firm and the oak is well weighted. Deep and concentrated with a powerful layered mouthfeel that drives long to the extended finish.
