Wine Description
Gottfried and Johanna Rosenzweig emigrated to the Barossa in 1858, seeking a better life for their family from Germany (Prussia). 152 years on and seven
generations of Rosenzweig Barossa farmers, later, the beginnings of this family heritage are celebrated with the inaugural launch of the “GOTTFRIED” Shiraz.
As three generations of Rosenzweig currently operate the Rosenvale Vineyards there is a common goal in place; to provide a connection of work with family, building of knowledge through practice and history told through experience.
To ensure there is a full understanding of how the fruit evolves across each of the Rosenvale vineyards, Rosenvale dedicates parcels from each of its vineyards for its own wine production. These parcels are made with minimal intervention to study and assess each unique aspect of each the vineyards character and fruit style.
These parcels are made with love, to study and assess the unique characters and fruit styles of each of the vineyards.
Accolades
94 POINTS Richly fruited and instantly appealing, the wine shows Black Doris plum, dark cherry, vanilla, roasted hazelnut and mixed spice aromas, leading to a supple palate that's succulent and silky-smooth. Upfront and delectably expressed, offering fabulous drinking. At its best: now to 2032. WINE ORBIT
93 POINTS - This shows a very ripe dark-fruit profile, almost like dark-berry cake, combined with a classic black-pepper note, some licorice and leather. Full-bodied, the
intensity and concentration take over your palate and last long, with a rather mineral aftertaste. Rich and dense, yet fresh. With a little bottle age, this will show even more. JAMES SUCKLING
