At the foot of the iconic Kaiserstuhl mountain, the early Silesian settlers of the Barossa constructed a stone altar – a sanctuary for prayer in their new homeland. The Krondorf Stone Altar Shiraz is a tribute to the settlers’ resourcefulness and resilience. This 2022 Shiraz is handcrafted from very low yielding old vines from exceptional sites in the sub-regions of Light Pass and Lyndoch. The old vine fruit has been picked at optimum ripeness and matured carefully in French oak casks for 18 months. Intense, deep red with a crimson hue, this wine has lifted dark cherry and plum aromas, married perfectly with nuances of cinnamon and dark chocolate. The palate displays the richness and concentration which Barossa Old Vine Shiraz is renowned for. Plum and dark spice feature, integrating perfectly with loose knit velvety tannins, beautifully balanced with exceptional power and length.
