✨ Technical Specifications
The Cellar Reserve Shiraz from Wolf Blass represents a more exclusive, small-batch exploration of South Australia's signature grape. Sourced from premium vineyards across renowned regions like the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, and Langhorne Creek, this wine showcases the winemakers' freedom to craft a contemporary style while honoring the estate's legendary blending heritage. Fermented in open fermenters and matured in a combination of French and American oak, it delivers the classic plushness, dark fruit intensity, and subtle spice that South Australian Shiraz is famous for, wrapped in a velvety, approachable structure.
