Description

Selected as the one best barrel of Lost Wolf shiraz each year, our family reserve is the true alpha of the wolf pack. Inky & rich, made from basket pressed hand-picked parcels & aged for twenty months+ in a specially made barrel of new French oak & old American oak before being set loose of upon the earth. This wine is to be enjoyed by a very small number of lucky individuals.

90% Shiraz 10% Cabernet

VINEYARD REGION
Western Ridge, Barossa Valley

WINE ANALYSIS
Alc/Vol: 14.5%

MATURATION
20+ months in old American shaved oak and brand new French oak ends

COLOUR
Dense, super deep dark cherry red

NOSE
Inviting and instantly seductive. Earthy intensity softened by aromas of Turkish delight.

PALETTE
Its all the core shiraz and more…
– If you drink without decanting first beware!
The Wolf added a dash more Cabernet and left this barrel maturing a little while longer to add slightly more intensity through a tighter tannin structure. This is a wine made to last and the palette will keep on maturing the longer you leave on your wine rack…
