The Barossa Valley is world-famous for concentrated styles of Shiraz. Bogan Shiraz is well known to be a quintessential, full-bodied style of Shiraz.

The Nuriootpa block provides more “black fruits.” Winner of Australia’s Best Shiraz, Great Australian Shiraz Challenge. Eyes: Deep dark red to black with an amazing purple hue Nose: Aromas of blackberry and white pepper with hints of spice, as you would expect from good use of oak Mouth: From the first mouthful it’s a flavour bomb, with its sweet black fruit in the front through to the seductive French oak on the very back of the palate. This, along with its silky tannins, should leave one very satisfied indeed. Body: Full
