Sourced exclusively off the unirrigated eight acre block, established 1973 at the western extremity of Yarra Yering. Cool climate new world Shiraz starts here. A high inclusion of stalks and whole bunches are added back to the traditional half tonne open tea chest fermenters to lend juiciness plus extra cut and persistent tannins to the sweeping finish. Basket pressed and aged eighteen months in a high proportion of new French oak. A slight westerly aspect and propitious clay soils yield a wine that's a perfect foil for the feminine Dry Red No.2

Deep garnet red. Heady plum fruits and pretty violet aromatics interlaced with liquorice spice and hint of cracked pepper. Blood plums and cigar oak with a violet floral lift from the inclusion of stalk during fermentation. The heavier clay based soils make a wine of dark fruits and spice, chewy tannins creating the framework in support of savouryness and fruit.

Shiraz grapes are all picked by hand and vinified on skins in traditional open fermenters over the course of a fortnight, followed by a good old fashioned, gentle basket press into a selection of seasoned and new American and French oak hogsheads for twenty two months maturation and an unfiltered bottling. Rich, opulent fruit aromas of macerated plum, black berries and black cherry, raspberries, currant and strawberries and compote. A flourish of deep spice and dark chocolate, a splendid, lingering finish on a length of bright, crisp raspberry acidity.

Kym Teusner is an enthusiastic winemaker. He was moved by the vine pullouts of old Barossa vineyards to take an interest in restoring destitute but precious sites which today produce some of the finest fruit. Amelie is sourced from a single, eighty years old Eden Valley property owned by the Sons of Eden, a great vineyard for yielding harvests of Shiraz displaying excellent colour, ripe tannins and generous flavour. Traditional vinification techniques and a hands off philosophy are employed to craft wines that are full of character and charm.

$2999each $359DOZEN EACH DOZEN Zeppelin was created by Artisan of the Barossa winemakers Corey Ryan and Kym Teusner. Proud of the contribution which German settlers made to the young colony of South Australia, the brand was named in honour of Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, a brave and progressive German who thought really big. A very simplistic approach to winemaking however, means that the elegance of Eden Valley Shiraz is preserved in the final wine. Fruit is vinified in open fermenters, pumped over by hand and treated to a good old fashioned basket press. Following maturation in a selection of older oak barrels to soften the tannins while retaining vibrant fruit character, Amelie is bottled without any fining or filtration. Alcohol 14.0%

Deep dark purple red in colour. Amelie flaunts a nose of rich dark fruit, vanilla blossom and delicate spice notes enhanced by an equally rich, full bodied palate of dark red fruits. Concentrated cassis, and raspberry flavours are balanced by soft, elegant tannins and fine oak finish.
