2016 Schwarz Wine Co Shiraz, Barossa Valley, great value Barossa Valley shiraz bring home the goods. Opulent fruitcake spiced fruit slides in a sexy coat of smoky chocolate laced oak. The tannins are supple and sexy. Will make a dry aged beef rib roast sensational.
Dark purple with solid presentation of bakery spices layered with subtle vanilla aromas. Great medium to full bodied pallet weight shows concentrated plum, cherry and finishes with fine & lengthy drying tannin.
Wine Front – Campbell Mattinson, 4 December 2017.
Barossa shiraz from a range of vineyards around the region. It’s a substantial red wine with fruit – rather than oak – to the fore. It’s a pure expression of shiraz in a Barossa landscape. It tastes of coal and blackberry jam, campfire and cloves, but it’s that hearty hit of blackberried – tinged with raspberry – fruit that really characterises it. It’s a faultless shiraz, from all angles.

Sam Kim – Wine Orbit
Deeply coloured and intensely aromatic, the bouquet shows black/blueberry, cranberry, violet, cocoa and warm spice aromas. The palate is concentrated and beautifully weighted, delivering pristine fruit flavours together with subtle savoury nuances, brilliantly supported by fleshy mouthfeel and silky texture. A gorgeous rendition offering fruit richness as well as elegance and grace. At its best: now to 2024. AU$30.00. www.schwarzwineco.com.au. March 2018
