Rolf Binder is the brother and sister partnership of Rolf Binder and Christa Deans who have been producing impressive Barossa Valley wine for over 25 vintages. This 2019 Rolf Binder Shiraz is made from five different Barossa Valley Shiraz, with a small amount of Grenache and estate-grown Mataro in the mix.
This is an approachable, flavoursome Barossa Shiraz that's true to the region and ready to be enjoyed now. Plenty of flavour on offer here with rich red berries, dark chocolate, cherry and cassis, with the small percentage of Grenache contributing some juicy, raspberry-like freshness. A lovely drinking Barossa Shiraz that offers wonderful value red wine drinking at this price.
“This delightful shiraz is terrific value for money. It has a deep, bold purple-red colour with violet, blackberry and blueberry aromas, traces of licorice and dark chocolate, the palate medium-bodied and nicely tailored to drink young, although it will certainly take some age in its stride. There’s just enough tannin to give it structure and finality. Screwcap. #4 of 43 2019 Shiraz from South Australia. Australian Buy of the Week- Huon Hooke, The Real Review, September 2020.
