7/17/2021, 12:50:08 PM *MAGNUM ALERT* Rockford Basket Press 2012. 1.5Ls of iconic, truly Barossan goodness. Now... there are a lot of producers in the Barossa making stunner Syrah style wines which I love, LOVE, but there's always a place in my heart for a traditional blockbuster Barossa Shiraz. The Rockford wineworks and apparatus on Krondorf Road at Tanunda date back to the 1850s. Parcels of the best dry grown old vine Shiraz, some of which were planted in the nineteenth century, from a select cabal of growers, operating vineyards in the Barossa, Kalimna and Ebenezer, Moppa Springs and the Eden Valley, are treated to an ancient basket press followed by vinfication in old fashioned open fermentation vessels. The batches are matured in a selection of mostly well-seasoned French and American oak barrels, before a rigorous selection to determine the final assemblage. Deeply coloured wine. A dense bouquet of aromatic dark fruits and berries with a twist of spice efore the most engaging palate of reductions, power and richness over background oak and complex spice. #whitewine #redwine #finewine #winefreak #instavinho #instagramwine #winelover #winepassion #wineenthusiast #wineaddict #cellar #wineoftheday #grapes #winewriter #wineblog #winestagram #wineo #wine ne #winetasting #winewinewine #cork #shiraz #winemaker #winebottle #winelife #somm #drinking #vin #barossa
