Lienert Vineyards Barossa Valley Shiraz 2017

This excellent shiraz drifts into the modern refined expression of Barossa shiraz, while retaining those essentials of ripe fruit intensity that are part of the regional DNA. It’s a chewy Barossa shiraz from an excellent year, loaded with succulent fruit flavours exhibiting an engaging mix of prune and plum with a dark chocolate, coffee grinds character infusing. On the palate some really interesting characters emerge. There’s a savoury dried herb edge then a little charcuterie adding to it. Bright fruit flavours are delivered with high energy and vibrancy.
