This expressive wine greets with aromas of ripe blackcurrant, anise, and cedar. The palate is rich and concentrated, showcasing layers of dark fruit, cocoa, and earthy undertones. Smooth tannins and vibrant acidity provide excellent structure, culminating in a long, refined finish.

Score 91-93

Readers should think of it as a French Vacqueyras on steroids. From 60-year-old vines in the Ebenezer district of Barossa, the 2005 Shiraz Bishop sees mostly French oak. It reveals a dense ruby/purple hue, beautiful, attractive notes of pepper, spice box, blackberries, and currants, and amazing richness as well as surprising elegance and definition. It can be consumed over the next 10-15 years.
