"Superbly fruited and fragrant, with blackberry, smoked game, toasty oak, and rich floral aromas. The palate is generously expressed with terrific weight and intensity, framed by silky tannins and a long, delectable finish. Best enjoyed now to 2031."
Vintage & Vineyard Notes:
The 2020 vintage benefited from ideal ripening conditions, with warm days and cool nights producing grapes with intense fruit flavours and balanced acidity. The Reillys St Clare vineyard’s rich red loam over deep limestone soils contributes to the wine’s distinctive minerality and structure.
Winemaking Notes:
Grapes are cold soaked to intensify colour and flavour, with extended skin contact to extract tannins and aromatic compounds. The wine is matured in 100% French oak hogsheads for 18 months, allowing the integration of oak nuances and soft tannins, resulting in a well-balanced, full-bodied Shiraz.
Flavour Profile:
- Appearance: Deep purple with crimson edges
- Nose: Aromas of dark berries, ripe plums, licorice, and hints of floral notes and spice
- Palate: Rich layers of blackberry, licorice, and spice, with a warm, toasty oak influence. Full-bodied with velvety tannins, a balanced fruit sweetness, and a long, spicy finish
Food Pairings:
Perfect with roasted lamb, beef steaks, or hearty mushroom dishes. Its robust structure also pairs well with aged cheeses and charcuterie boards, making it ideal for both casual dinners and celebratory occasions.
Open a bottle of Barking Mad Shiraz 2020 and enjoy its bold, layered complexity, exceptional balance, and remarkable ageing potential—an outstanding choice for lovers of premium Australian Shiraz.
