✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the historic soils of the Barossa Valley in South Australia, the Jacob's Creek Survivor Vines Shiraz is a tribute to the resilience of the region's oldest vineyards. The name honors those rare, ancient vines that survived the devastating vine-pull schemes of the 1980s and the harsh Australian elements over many decades. These low-yielding, deep-rooted old vines produce grapes of extraordinary concentration and complexity. Crafted with traditional winemaking techniques, including maturation in premium French and American oak hogsheads, this Shiraz showcases a dense, full-bodied profile. It weaves a rich tapestry of dark bramble fruits, warm baking spices, and earthy undertones, reflecting the unique terroir and living history of South Australian viticulture.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Jacob's Creek er en af Australiens mest ikoniske vinproducenter med en historie, der trækker tråde tilbage til 1847. Dengang plantede den bayerske immigrant Johann Gramp Barossa Valleys første kommercielle vinmark langs bredden af Jacob's Creek. Selve brandet blev officielt lanceret i 1976 og har siden spillet en afgørende rolle i at udbrede imødekommende og udtryksfulde australske vine til resten af verden. Vinhuset høster druer fra nogle af Sydaustraliens fineste terroirs og lægger vægt på druetypicitet, saftig frugtkarakter og innovative fadlagringsteknikker. Porteføljen spænder vidt – fra den klassiske Shiraz Cabernet og den elegante Steingarten Riesling til den nyskabende Double Barrel-serie – og forener på fornemmeste vis Barossas stolte traditioner med moderne vinmagerkunst.
