This 2017 Mystery Barossa Single-Vineyard Shiraz is an absolute cracker. A show-stopper!
A super Museum-Reserve vintage from the Barossa dress-circle of Greenock out on the Western ridge. The same region that garnered impeccable scores from the legendary The Wine Advocate back in the day.
Think of it as a museum release, finally let out.
Hand-picked and destemmed, then fermented in small open fermenters with hand-plunging across 14 days. Three months on skins after that, building structure and depth. Then basket pressed, which is slow, gentle, and nobody's idea of an efficient way to make wine.
Four years in Allier French oak followed. Then it was bottled, and then it waited.
It is arriving now, exactly as intended. Plum and cedar on the nose. Blackberry, spice and a savoury edge running long across the palate. Fine-grained tannins holding the whole thing in shape. Drinking beautifully today, with room until 2033.

"A nine-year-old Shiraz with the makings of a prime wine. I’m not sure of the RRP, but at the TWC price, it's exceptional value. I bought four bottles, shared two with friends (thumbs up), and cellared the other two to enjoy with a BBQ rib-eye on the bone. Recommended."
"Expectations set at astronomical. Greenock delivers. Incredibly elegant, generous flavours, superbly built. White linen, fine china, professional waiters, and the Museum Reserve is at home. An Armagnac to follow."
"A great addition to my cellar and glad I took the opportunity to buy 12 Will be greatly appreciated over the coming months"
"I was very reluctant prior to purchasing as I have had poor quality mystery wines before with suggested expensive wines that weren’t really expensive But this wine taste magnificent and I now kick myself for not ordering a full dozen"
"Looking forward to having this for a special Occasion in the next 6 months!"
"Extremely disappointing 9 year old wine. We returned the wine to TWC for credit and the same box of wine was sent back to us unopened by TWC. ?????"
"Such a special wine for such an incredible price. If i had known I would have bought more."
"As with most Barossa reds, this one did not disappoint! Great shiraz!"
"Hope it will never sold out so I can always have it"
"Smooth as silk and ticks all the boxes. Superb medium bodied wine."
