Description
"An immensely appealing Shiraz; the fragrant bouquet shows ripe blackberry, mixed berry compote, mint chocolate and cedar characters. The palate displays excellent weight and concentration, wonderfully complemented by rich texture and rounded mouthfeel. Comfortingly delicious. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2019
"A whole lot of black fruit, some mint, brown spices. It’s fleshy and sweetly black fruited, BBQ sauce flavour, choc-liquorice, ripe tannin, decent length. It does the job very well" Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
This is plush with lifted red and blue berry fruit flavours layered with dark spice, fresh leather and black olive. The palate is loose and mouth-filling, driven long by fresh acidity and supple tannins. A serious wine suitable for all occasions - ready to drink now or with careful cellaring it will improve over the medium term.
The fruit is hand harvested and vineyard sorted before de-stemming and cool fermentation in small two tonne open fermenters with regular hand plunging. Matured in seasoned French and American oak (30% new French) for nine months before bottling with minimum filtration and sulphur addition.
A partnership with their Adelaide Hills and Langhorne Creek growers, Burns & Fuller is a range of contemporary and fruit driven varietal wines made by Jim Zerella. This wine is fruit-driven and balanced with a core of fruit given complexity by a barrel aged component.
Sourced from a combination of established, dry-grown vineyards in central South Australia and low yielding McLaren Vale vineyards. Wines are made and matured by Jim Zerella in McLaren Vale.
