Schild, Shiraz Moorooroo Limited, Barossa Valley

>125yr old vines. This is a dense shiraz with spiney tannins. 2017 in the Barossa was a very cool vintage and that clearly translates to the fruit making for a focused expression. Black fruits, some cherry and olive, mineral, long, acid carrying the fruit. Balanced. This is dipping now from a primary all berry phase to more awkward youth. Noteing the superb early balance of previous bottles this may yet yield spectacular rewards in future.
