Description

The Gibson's Australian Old Vine Shiraz has now firmly established itself as an Australian benchmark wine. This is now the fifth release of the wine which has been produced from remnants of Shiraz vines planted sometime in the mid 1850's at Langmiel. The tiny vineyard can be compared to a living fossil and is of national significance. Gibson's 2003 release of this wine is a gloriously aromatic example, displaying superb refinement.

Totally opaque black purple colour with deep purple red hue. The nose delivers that very special perfumed lift that has been the hallmark of all the Old Vine Shiraz wines. Aroma of violets, vanilla, dark chocolate, mixed spice and ripe plum. Wave upon wave of mouthfilling flavours converge onto the palate - vanilla, plum, chocolate, blackpepper & spice are supported by very fine tannins. Exceptional length and persistence. Fine grained tannins. Aftertaste of vanilla violets, black berries, cherry ripe and dark chocolate.
Alc/Vol: 14.5%


"A profound offering fashioned from 93- to 140-year-old vines, the 2003 Old Vine Collection Shiraz boasts extraordinary elegance and precision along with a deep, black raspberry and cassis-scented nose, beautiful sweetness, a peppery, spicy purity on the attack, full body, superb ripeness, decent acidity, and a long, heady, supple finish. It should drink well for a minimum of 10-15 years."
