Winemaker Kym Teusner is one of the Barossa’s most talented young winemakers, but with a twist. While many of his generation are making massively rich and ripe reds - often at very high prices; Teusner has aimed to balance the natural power of old vine Barossa material with careful, reductive winemaking that produces wines of wonderful elegance and complexity.
The 2019 Teusner Bilmore Shiraz is another super example of the Teusner Barossa Shiraz style; soft, flavoursome and mouth filling with an enormous level of 'drinkability', this is another sensational offering from Teusner.
"94 Points. 95 / 5% shiraz/ cabernet sauvignon; 10–20yo vines; matured 12 months in old French oak hogsheads. I've long marvelled at Kym Teusner's superpower of delivering glossy density with vitality and accuracy. Few in the Barossa do this with such consistency across every varietal and price point. Particularly noble at the value end of the pool. The depth and just-picked freshness of sweet black fruits that he has conjured here is not often seen without spending double the dollars. Long, fine-grained, jubilant and irresistible. Yes, please. $27. 14.5% alc. Drink by: 2025. Screwcap"- Tyson Stelzer, winecompanion.com.au.
