We’ve recently enjoyed tasting some older wines at Cellar Door and thought it would be great to release a small allocation of wines from the museum for you to enjoy at home.

A single vineyard expression of Shiraz from a vineyard that turned 100 years old in 2015, and is located on the western ridge of the famous Barossa Valley. Originally planted by the Helbig family in 1915, the vineyard became a very sought after parcel for the Barossa’s leading winemakers. Luckily for the Ashmead family, we were able to acquire this vineyard in late 2010, forever ending the race to get this amazing fruit.

TASTING NOTES
This wine is full-bodied with high alcohol, and vibrant berry and plum on both the nose and palate. It is described as robust and spicy with a slightly sweet finish, accompanied by a velvety and slightly syrupy mouthfeel.
