An explosive Barossa Shiraz from low yielding, old vineyards in Marananga and Stonewell, planted to the R6 and 1654 clones. There’s old vine fruit from Greenock, the vines so old that the clonal selection is unknown. Matured in a combination of new French and older American oak, this is a stunning Barossa Shiraz offering dense black fruits, blue fruits, blackberries, coffee, graphite, chocolate, minerals, liquorice, spice, blueberries, cedar and firm tannins. Stunning.
Lone Palm Vineyard is situated at the Southern end of the Hamlet of Marananga on the Western ridge of the Barossa Valley. The vineyard gets its name from a single old palm tree next to the original cottage built in the late 1800s, the same palm trees that line Seppeltsfield Rd and can be seen from the tasting room at the winery. All the wines are made low-fi, aiming for a “house style” of generous flavour, with juicy texture and complexity. All are picked in the cool of the morning each vintage, open-fermented slowly and then gently basket pressed.
