Barossa Valley Shiraz – power with elegance. Densely flavored, primary fruit driven, with generous use of American oak. Rich, voluptuous Shiraz, yet with restraint and a seam of elegance which belies the power of the fruit.
The Protagonist is named after Hamish Macdonald’s painting as well as the leadership role that the Barossa Valley has taken with the emergence of Australian Shiraz internationally.
“The best wines of 2008 - Matthew Jukes and Tyson Stelzer.
The Protagonist shows every sign of being a future classic in the making. Is this big, ripe wine just the thing that will clean up at the next big blind tasting? We saw it first, we reckon it is, and we don’t want you to miss out.”Fruit for this wine is sourced from mature low yielding vineyards located on the northern (Kalimna& Ebenezer) and western (Seppeltsfield) sub regions of the Barossa Valley. Fruit is picked at optimum ripeness, with individual parcels matched to a selection of American oak where it matures for two years prior to blending and bottling.Barossa Valley Shiraz – Densely flavored, primary fruit driven, with generous use of American oak. Rich, voluptuous shiraz with layers of intense flavour. The Protagonist employs some restraint which gives it a seam of elegance, belying the power of the fruit. It's what we believe the Barossa does best - power with elegance - a style of wine that has become synonymous with Australia and captivated so many around the world. |
