Tasting Notes:

A rich, distinctive nose defined by layers of blackberry, blackcurrant and dark plum is backed up with deep notes of espresso coffee, panforte and hints of tobacco. Smoky, toasted-nut characters, derived from barrel fermentation and maturation, add attractive complexity.

The palate is complex, mouth-filling and beautifully balanced, with refined yet generous dark berry fruit, and savoury secondary flavours of spice, coffee and cedary oak. Rich and elegant, with a velvety texture and supple, chocolatey tannins that impart a definitive structural line and exceptional length of flavour. The vintage is typical of the characteristic Black Label style that overrides regional and varietal influences.

Technical:

Since 1973, the chase to make the perfect wine has been fundamental to creating 44 remarkable vintages of Black Label. Built on complex, multilayered flavour and magnificent structure, Black Label is a powerful expression of the Wolf Blass philosophy of synergistic blending.

The philosophy behind Black Label is simple: to take the year’s very best wines and weave them together into a synergistic whole, the resultant wine being greater than the sum of its parts. It’s about creating a wine with many layers of flavour in a complex composition of intense fruit characters, magnificent structure, a rich lustrous texture, long velvety tannins and a lingering palate.

Harvested at optimum maturity and flavour, fruit from each vineyard was crushed, destemmed and fermented separately for seven to twelve days on skins. The ferments were allowed to warm naturally, with plunging and gentle pumping over used to maximise colour and flavour extraction. Mid-ferment cooling extended fermentation, exploiting time on skins and accentuating line and length. Some batches stayed on skins to dryness, while others completed fermentation in barrel, allowing a balanced integration of oak characters and enhancing texture and complexity.

Accolades & Awards:

97 Point Rated - Tyson Stelzer The Barossa Magazine

"The mastery of blending Cabernet and Shiraz (with a little Malbec) in the regional tapsetry of the Barossa, McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills furnished marvelous opportunity, even in the warm and dry 2019 season. The result unites tremendous depth of glossy black fruits, liquorice and dark chocolate with a vibrancy, drive and structural poise like no other blend can muster. The glide of super-fine Cabernet tannins is something to behold in the presence of earth-shaking endurance that promises to hold it strong for half a century."

96 Point Rated - Stuart Know The Real Review

"Ink black core, the rim just fading slightly to deep ruby red. Heady aromas of cassis and cola spices. The mouth fills with a deep concentration of black and blue fruits that are layered with a melange of anise, cola, and Szechuan spices. The weight and intensity is remarkable but it remains in focus due to prodigious tannins that elevate this wine to another level. It drives and carries an incredible length that lingers for an age. Many years ahead of it"

95 Point Rated - Erin Larkin Robert Parker Wine Advocate

"Proudly displayed on the label are two pieces of information that speak to the history of this wine: "47th vintage" and "record four time Jimmy Watson Trophy winner 1974, 1975, 1976, 1999." The trifecta of three vintages in a row is very impressive! I digress. The 2019 Black Label Cabernet Shiraz (and Malbec) is sourced from three key regions in South Australia: Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills. It's concentrated, intense, saturating and dense, and despite my personal predilections running toward fine/detailed/nuanced, etc., it's difficult not to love this wine. Enveloping folds of flavor embrace the mouth and reverberate out over the long finish. A profusion of tannin only becomes more plush and plump as the wine wears on, the fruit a vortex of flavor and density. Excellent. Very full-bodied and big."

95 Point Rated - Campbell Mattinson James Halliday Wine Companion

"Sourced from the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills. Matured in French and American oak (24% new). This is a beefy release with caramel, toast, scorched plum and dark earth flavours rumbling through the palate. The alcohol feels warm and the oak appears overt, but the fruit is intense and the finish is satisfying."
