SKU: SCHNITSHZ21
The Nitschke Road Shiraz block was planted by Jason Schwarz's mother and father in 1968 in Bethany near the base of the Eastern Barossa Range. The vineyard is still pruned and picked by hand and the soils of loam over brown and red clays results in a wine of considerable concentration and drive.

Red - juicy, smooth, medium-bodied
Palate
The coda of contemporary Barossa. A sweet entry. Red pastille, licorice root and smoked meats. A tannic brood hides this wine's savory tones at first sip. They come with time. A highly aromatic, full-bodied and contemporary expression of Barossan shiraz, crafted very well.
Vintage

Food Pairing
Rosemary & garlic roast lamb with red wine jus.
”An initial blast of ripe macerated plum and cassis characters backed up by hints of olive tapenade, violets, cedar, amaro herbs, earth, licorice, vanilla, baking spices and chocolate-dipped cherries. Broody and resonant on the palate with a deep, dark fruit presence, layers of spice and fine, powdery tannin and a cassis-like finish that shows great sustain.”
