Wine Description
The 2018 Seppeltsfield Barossa Shiraz is our foundation-level, representing the estate and diverse holding of vineyards that cross the region's Western ridge, from the North to Southern grounds.
Generations of grape growers have farmed this variety in the region since the 1840s - the complex combination of varying geology, geography and climate interacting to express its qualities in manner of ways, from perfumed and elegant to rich and generous.
