There's an awful lot of stuff going on in this wine, all of it good. Pure and resonant black cherry, satsuma plum and blueberry fruits along with hints of exotic spice, coal dust, peppercorn, maguey, mountain herbs, pan juices, sage, dark chocolate, crushed rocks and earth. Full bodied and heady, yet it rides with lift and freshness, with compact, powdered-quartz tannins providing gentle grip and a frame for that filigreed fruit to drape off. Hooley dooley, this is a wonderful, soulful Eden Valley wine.\" \u003cstrong\u003e96+ Points - Dave Brookes, Halliday\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE WINE: \u003c\/strong\u003eFrom the Steinert Vineyard in the Eden Valley from plantings from around 1900 . \u003cspan\u003eThese wines encapsulate the 'New Barossa', balancing richness while maintaining fruit purity and acknowledging a sense of place. To achieve this, Callum has a few tricks. He shares, “I try not to pick overripe and limit using too much new oak. Fermentation is long, gentle and cold and without inoculated yeast strains. The barrel cellar is very cold and all of the wine movements from vintage to bottling are by gravity.\" \u003cstrong\u003eHalliday\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Barossa is big on tradition, but what excites the most is the new generation of winemakers coming through the ranks, producing world-class wines with a deep respect for the subregions and history of Australia's most famous wine region. Callum Powell is one such winemaker. Son of ex-Torbreck svengali Dave Powell, he now crafts his own range of wines from a couple of sheds in Flaxman Valley. It’s a stunning range of wines from vineyard sites that will be familiar to those that love the Barossa – the Hoffman Dimchurch and Dallwitz blocks, Three Rivers and the 1864-planted Asbroek vineyard in Kalimna. The winemaking is thoughtful and deeply considered, the resulting wines stunning in their fruit purity and sense of place and Agricola Vintners can be underlined as one of the stars of the ‘New Barossa’. \u003cstrong\u003eHalliday Wine Companion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eden Valley, South Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Callum Powell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimal Intervention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Perth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47966916477077,"sku":"6218","price":120.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260353.jpg?v=1789614442","url":"https:\/\/theheritageperth.com.au\/products\/agricola-flaxman-seeliger-shiraz-2025","provider":"The Heritage Perth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
