St Hallett Blackwell Shiraz 2002
Silky, smooth and pristine modern Barossa shiraz whose smoky, creamy fragrance of cassis, dark plums and blueberries is lifted by spicy nuances of cloves and cinnamon and some carefully measured chocolate-like American oak. Round and generous, it’s a fruit bombshell, steeped in intense flavours of blackberries and cassis matched by some rather voluptuous and creamy, mocha oak.

Winery
St Hallett
Recently acquired by Accolade Wines, St Hallett is a Barossa shiraz specialist. Its Faith is typically vibrant, spicy and silky-smooth, while the Blackwell has more richness, structure and expression. A Barossa benchmark responsible for two excellent releases from 2010 and 2012, the Old Block tops them both for depth, structure and longevity. Recent vintages have also seen a significant improvement in the Eden Valley Riesling, which produced rather a different, more early-maturing style from 2014.
