2018 Château Tanunda Terroirs of the Barossa Eden Valley Shiraz

2025-08-31T00:26:43Z

96 points - Medium unfiltered red with a touch of brick and a glint of purple. Tertiary aromas appearing now, savoury, leather, cloves, spice and walnut. Beautifully aged, integrated and superbly harmonious, walnutty, spicy, rich. What a surprisingly gorgeous mouthful of wine. Seamless, umami flavour. Perfect!

96 points - Deep purple red. Spicy, stable floor aromas, some plum. The palate expresses a good deal of umami, ironstone, iron bucket style flavours, also lots of dried spice. There is a really good density and concentration here, bitterness that is appetising. A powerful, almost profound style.

96 points - Restrained on the nose with touches of iodine and rusty bucket, spiced, plummy and chocolate notes. Beautiful density and balance, full bodied with poise, dark chocolate, umami flavours. After some time the nose blossoms into a complex melange of aromas.

95 points - The wine now coming into focus. Lifted iron oxide nose, providing a fine mineral line. Superbly integrated even at this stage in its life. Smooth. Dark cherry, with an almost dark chocolate backdrop.

2023-08-25T21:35:00Z

96 points - Deep inky purple. Dense, profound and complex aromas. Deeply flavoured, there is an amazing power and undercurrent of smoky, dusty fruit. Great structure, musculature, it’s toned without being brawny. A quietly powerful wine. Savoury in style, chimney soot, coal dust characters overlay. Excellent length and presence.
