The Colonial Estate Mungo Park Single Vineyard Old Vine Barossa Valley Shiraz 2018 

Dark/red to maroon centre with opaque purple and red flashes on edge. A highly aromatic and complex Shiraz with great natural fruit presence showing blackberry, mulberry, dark chocolate, plums, olives, earth, a touch of acid as well as oak. The palate has concentrated flavours of super ripe blackberry, spicy plum, dark chocolate, and pepper as well as obvious natural fruit acidity. The juicy, dark, tannins have a wonderful length and line, which ensures the wine, lingers for an extended period whilst the oak stands in place perfectly and allows the natural fruit acid and notes of pepper to give additional length. The wine is best left to breathe for an hour or two prior to consuming if drinking in next 2-3 years which will allow the wine to open up as it will be tightly wound up before age allows it to show its true beauty.

The Colonial Estate Explorateur Barossa Valley Sparkling Shiraz Nv

Deep purple to crimson red. Elegant and lively with rich aromas of blackberry, cherry and spice with hints of licorice and oak filling out the nose. The palate vibrant and balanced with soft fruit driven flavour initially with blackberries, plums and licorice notes all combining on the creamy palate. An approachable mid palate, which is full-flavored, while the hint of tannin and fresh lively finish make this one of the most moreish wines we have created.
