Thorn Clarke Terra Barossa WS Cabernet Shiraz 2016

CANCELLLED EXPORT MEGADEAL

FIVE STARS | Halliday Wine Companion 2017
FIVE STARS 93/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit  "...a concentrated palate that is intensely flavoured and generously textured"

Here is a massive opportunity for fans of bold, generously framed Cabernet Shiraz - the classic South Australian blend. This premium, Winemaker's Series release was destined for the Chinese market before the well-publicised trade spat between Australia and China kyboshed that sale. All we can say is that their loss is definitely your gain.

We have long admired the robust wines of Thorn-Clarke and this perfectly bottle-aged, premium red shows a concentrated palate that is intensely flavoured and generously textured. That fulsome palate weight has become beautifully integrated over time and shows silky mouthfeel and supple tannins. The cabernet component is beautifully expressed, bringing both structure and obvious aging ability into play. In short, it's an absolute ripper. 

This quality wine is drinking superbly now and comes to you with more gas in the tank. We expect it to remain in its current prime form for 4+ years.

As you would expect with bottle-aged wine of this calibre, stock is limited. Climb in.
