Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Aromatically complex and layered this wine first shows notes of dark plums, blueberries and chocolate before more earthy, mineral hints of dusty red earth and boot polish peak from behind. The palate is marked by a controlled creamy mouthfeel with the same primary dark fruit and chocolate notes evident before a fine tannin frame works around the edges and provides just enough framing to allow the fruit a targeted line of travel through the palate. Structural, mineral, and bright.

Professional Ratings

  • 95
    Picked and bunch-sorted by hand, berry-sorted by the destemmer, 3-5 days cold soak, 7-14 days ferment, matured for 21 months in French oak (30% new). It is very full-bodied, but the extract has been controlled, with black and blue berries, ripe plums and a hint of cream to the texture.

    COMMENTARY: The 2017 Schild Estate Narrow Road Vineyard Pramie Shiraz shows Old World reverence. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with aromas and flavors of black fruit, rustic spices, and licorice. Try it with slow-braised meat dishes. (Tasted: April 10, 2022, San Francisco, CA)

Marked by an unmistakable deep purple hue and savory aromatics, Syrah makes an intense, powerful and often age-worthy red. Native to the Northern Rhône, Syrah achieves its maximum potential in the steep village of Hermitage and plays an important component in the Red Rhône Blends of the south, adding color and structure to Grenache and Mourvèdre. Syrah is the most widely planted grape of Australia and is important in California and Washington. Sommelier Secret—Such a synergy these three create together, the Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre trio often takes on the shorthand term, “GSM.”

Barossa Valley Wine

Barossa, Australia

View all products

Historically and presently the most important wine-producing region of Australia, the Barossa Valley is set in the Barossa zone of South Australia, where more than half of the country’s wine is made. Because the climate is very hot and dry, vineyard managers work diligently to ensure grapes reach the perfect levels of phenolic ripeness.

The intense heat is ideal for plush, bold reds, particularly Shiraz on its own or Rhône Blends. Often Shiraz and Cabernet partner up for plump and powerful reds.

While much less prevalent, light-skinned varieties such as Riesling, Viognier or Semillon produce vibrant Barossa Valley whites.

Most of Australia’s largest wine producers are based here and Shiraz plantings date back as far as the 1850s or before. Many of them are dry farmed and bush trained, still offering less than one ton per acre of inky, intense, purple juice.
