Imperial 2016 Birthright Shiraz
At their heart, the world’s greatest wine regions have intrinsic qualities which can neither be bought nor earned. They fashion wines reflective of their unique terroir, forged by the elemental forces of nature, unassailable and unforgettable. Such is the Birthright of the Barossa.
Vintage
2016
Varietal
- Shiraz
Colour
Deep crimson with purple hues.
Aroma
A rich bouquet of red and blue fruits, herbs and cedar, entwine with hints of sage, chocolate and savoury notes.
Palate
Rich and juicy raspberry and Satsuma plum fill the mouth, with allspice sweetness adding to the mouthfeel. The fruit is well balanced with hints of briary spice and textural, fine-grained tannins on the lengthy finish.
"These are wines of great historical significance, not to mention quality, and should occupy a lofty place in the pantheon of Australian wine."
Huon Hooke, The Real Review
