Teusner Albert Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021

Outclassing many of Australia’s super premium Shiraz icons, the exceptional 99pt Teusner Albert Shiraz 2021 has landed a spot in James Halliday’s Top 100 Wines of 2023. Named after Kym Teusner’s grandfather, Albert Alfred Teusner, the Albert Shiraz was picked from an old block at Ebenezer in northern Barossa and from old vines in Koonunga to the Barossa’s northwest. Complex aromas of dark fruits, hints of menthol spice and charcuterie, paired with a palate packed with boysenberry, black satsuma plum, black cherry and cassis. Great intensity and length. Tannins are fine grained, supple, long and well-balanced acidity will see this wine cellar beautifully over the next decade or so.
