Description
The fruit for Saltram’s The Journal Centenarian Shiraz comes from s original 1901 vineyard plantings. Due to the vine age exceeding 100 years, this single vineyard wine has the Centenarian classification from the Barossa Old Vine Charter. A precious tribute to the winerys rich Barossa history. Dense, brooding and old vine-vinous. Malty oak. Clove, black plum, five-spice, violet and mocha. The power cannot be denied. Without the detail of its cabernet brethren in youth, this needs time. – Ned Goodwin, Halliday Wine Companion, 93 points The Finer Details Style – Red Wine Varietal – Shiraz Country – Australia Region – Barossa Valley, South Australia Vintage – 2016 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 13.7%
