Wine Description
The Story
PARADOX: An opinion or statement contrary to received opinion. The Paradox is not what you might expect from a wine from the Northern Barossa. It’s not the high octane, lots of new oak stereotypical Northern Barossa Shiraz, but rather a softer more gentle, velvet-like and savoury style of wine.
Wine Information
An inky, crimson wine. Aromas full of mixed spice and crushed black pepper, violets, fennel and hints of blueberries. The palate is like layers of velvet, with great structure showing lush red berries, olives and anise. Finishing savoury and driven by fine powdery tannins.
