Stonehouse Neldner Vineyard Barossa Valley Icon Shiraz 2022
$150.00
Better again than the incredible 98 point Neldner which was compared by one wine writer to Penfolds Grange.
Handpicked grapes from an 80 year old contoured vineyard in Gomersal. Long slow fermentation including more than 10% whole bunch fruit before basket pressing into 30% new oak inc. both French and American. A stunningly perfumed nose leads to a palate with exceptional structure and richness. Red fruits, black fruits, coffee, cherries, red plum, dark chocolate, spice and fine, powdery tannins to finish. A pinnacle Barossa Shiraz experience.

While his family owned a winery and vineyard in a cooler section of the Fleurieu Peninsula, winemaker Tom White was always driven to make richer full bodied wines and therefore gravitated to the Barossa Valley. Tom has old vines in the prized Marananga district and also uses old vine fruit from Greenock. Oak used is French, very high quality and sparingly applied to allow fruit to shine, The Grapes are handpicked, ferments hand plunged and the blending process undertaken with great care.
