β¨ Technical Specifications
The Grand Barossa Limited Reserve Shiraz is a testament to Chateau Tanunda's historic legacy in the Barossa Valley, dating back to 1890. Sourced from select premium vineyards across the region, this wine showcases the classic power and elegance of Barossa terroir. The vines thrive in ancient soils, benefiting from warm days and cool nights that concentrate the flavors of the grapes. In the cellar, traditional winemaking techniques such as open fermentation and basket pressing are employed to gently extract color and tannin. The wine is then matured in a selection of French and American oak barrels, integrating rich dark fruit characters of blackberry and plum with subtle notes of vanilla, mocha, and sweet spice, reflecting the pioneering spirit of one of Australia's most iconic estates.
