Description

Levels IN, good appearance.

The estate’s flagship cuvee is the virtually perfect 2003 Run Rig. Made from 8 separate Barossa vineyards (ranging in age from 94 to 158 years), it is primarily Shiraz with 4-5% co-fermented Viognier included in the blend. The wine was aged in French oak of which 60% is new. The sensational, inky/purple-tinged 2003 exhibits a stunningly sweet nose of blackberries, blueberries, litchi nuts, smoked meats, and a hint of apricots. Elegant yet super-powerful, rich, concentrated, and long, it is a tour de force in winemaking as well as a modern classic example of Barossa Shiraz. It should drink well for 20-25 years. Tasted October 2006. robertparker.com

 

This lot forms part of a private family collection with an enthusiasm for every corner of the wine-making world. Purchased through various reputable auction houses and UK wine merchants, the wine was stored in a meticulously organised country house cellar prior to removal for this sale. Now lying at LCB Vinotheque.
