Thomas The Dam Block Shiraz 2017

Artfully made in a fuller, luscious and juicy, dark-fruited style, this riper, layered expression of black, blue and red berries, faintly smoky, cedary oak and meaty complexity is supported by a fine, faintly mineral spine. It becomes more streamlined and savoury down the palate, finding focus and shape despite its generosity and richness of flavour.

Winery

Andrew Thomas has fashioned a stable of distinctive Hunter wines from its traditional varieties of shiraz and semillon. What makes them unique is their obvious association with benchmarks from the past, their highly polished, spotless nature and balance, plus something a little less tangible and ethereal that makes them completely delicious. The whites are pure, fresh and mineral, while the reds deliver pristine, intense aromas and flavours with remarkable elegance and savoury charm. Over the years Thomas has steadily added to its range, finding sites able to deliver traditional regional style as well as points of difference to existing wines.
