Product Description
With the CR Barossa Shiraz, I am looking for that classic North-Western Barossa Shiraz blackberry profile, together with sweet, dark, plum jammy notes. As always, the palate is all about sweet red berries, milk chocolate and subtle vanillin.

Product details
Chris Ringland, owner and winemaker of namesake wines, Ringland Vintners, uses fruit
from his own small Stone Creek Chimney Vineyard, in the Barossa Ranges of Southern
Australia. The vines there are nearly 100 years old. Yields are miniscule-one ton an acre-and
production is correspondingly low, 60 to 100 cases a year. Ringland is known as a maverick
Shiraz producer and is also known for his former winery, Three Rivers.
