The sub region of Moppa lies at the northern most tip of the Barossa Valley’s western edge. The Block 3 vineyard is positioned on the slope of the hill that faces almost due north. The east west orientation of the vine rows protects the fruit from the hot sun, and channels afternoon breezes to cool the canopy. The fruit ripens more slowly, creating complex flavours and retaining natural acidity.
The wine is defined by a palate of huge volumes of salivating, savoury black fruits, framed by dusty tannins and incredible length. The fruit flavours are intense, showing dark blood plums and cherries with nuances of liquorice and anise spice over a fine structure of mineral edged tannins. The wine was matured in 20% new French oak to provide enhance spice and tannin definition.
