Barr-Eden Estate Love Over Gold Shiraz 2016

“Love is an emotion that can be felt for an eternity. Gold is just material.” Made with a deft touch, Love over Gold is a magical wine. Its core of fruit touches the palate, displaying great persistence. The tertiary aromas and minerality generate complexity and drive an extremely long finish. Mengler’s Hill; 89yo vines; hand picked; 10% whole bunches; matured in one 2 yo French oak puncheon; 600 bottles. The tension and complexity of cool, high Barossa shiraz jostles for space and attention with French oak. Pepper, curry powder and cashew nuts, with a core of tangy berry fruits carrying a long finish. Tart acidity and firm, fine tannins struggle to harmonise, rendering the finish bitter. – Tyson Stelzer The Finer Details Style – Red Wine Varietal – Shiraz Country – Australia Region – Eden Valley, South Australia Vintage – 2016 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 14.5%
