2022 Mystery Barossa Shiraz Deal No. 38

Like the smoothest couverture chocolate, this dazzling Shiraz from a prestigious Barossa name glides through the palate with pure decadence and desire.

An inky black-and-blue elixir, sourced from the dry-grown northern slopes of Barossa, this fruit usually finds its way into the most exclusive and high-end labels. Yet, here it is – yours to discover at an extraordinary value.

This is the essence of Barossa. This is the uniqueness of Australian Shiraz. Velvet in a glass, with flavours that linger long after the sip. Think cocoa, violets, charcuterie, warm spices, boysenberry, blackberry, coffee beans, and vanilla. It's a symphony of layered flavours and tannins, with earthy warmth and a hint of smoked oak adding a savoury depth.

In 2022, this renowned Barossa winemaker – a custodian of some of the world’s oldest vines – uncovered a unique parcel of fruit that demanded exceptional treatment. Set apart from the rest, it was nurtured with artisanal care and bottled under a new, one-off vintage label. At the cellar door, this masterpiece commands $450 a bottle, a reflection of its stature and ambition.

With a near-perfect 99-point score from Sam Kim, this Shiraz stands among the elite, yet here is your chance to experience it for a fraction of the price.
