Grant Burge reds always display classic Barossa style. This Shiraz has all the hallmarks with ripe cherry fruit smoky overtones and a good measure of sweet vanillin oak. In recent years has really began to hit its straps and with the last few Barossa vintages being on the warm side, this is a wine for the 'old school' Shiraz lover.

The Twin Oaks Barossa Reserve Shiraz is a selection of 2 outstanding vineyards providing aromas of dark berries and herbs with a hint of spice. The palate carries the themes and is full and delicious with mouth watering acidity keeping a lovely balance. "A magnificent rendition of the variety; the hugely complex bouquet shows dark fruit intensity with seductive notes of dark chocolate, dried flower, clove and cedar. It's immensely powerful and lavish with multi-layered mouthfeel and loads of delectable flavours, while remaining balanced and structured. Hugely gratifying. At its best: now to 2037. Nov 2020." Wine Orbit - 96 Points.
