Pepperjack Shiraz 2003
Rather a cooked, stewy expression of Barossa shiraz whose meaty, earthy aromas of dark plums and blackberries reveal a hint of pepper and a lot of assertive, creamy vanilla oak. Plump and generous, it’s packed with plenty of concentrated fruit, but falls away towards a lean and slightly metallic finish. It’s a little out of balance, but will please many.

Winery
Pepperjack
Pepperjack is a popular Treasury Wine Estates-owned brand originally spawned out of the Saltram business. Its very approachable, soft and juicy Barossa Valley reds are usually richly flavoured, generously oaked and ready to drink by release as illustrated by the deliciously sour-edged and savoury 2012 Shiraz.
