St Hallett Blackwell Shiraz 2010
Elegant, deeply flavoured and likely to age with pleasing complexity. Its heady, floral and briary aromas of cassis, raspberries, redcurrants and boysenberries are knit with fresh chocolate/vanilla oak and backed by a light mintiness. Long and supple, its measured, evenly fruited palate of sour-edged fruit, rather smooth and polished oak and firmish, crunchy tannins finishes with lingering flavour but lacks a little focus and tightness.

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.
