2021 Reserve Barossa Shiraz, Berton Vineyard Wine Republic

2021 Reserve Barossa Shiraz, Berton Vineyard

Barossa Valley, Australia

This is bold Barossa Shiraz with dark fruit, warmth and plenty of polish. Blackberry, bramble and fruits of the forest lead the nose, followed by violet, dark chocolate, vanilla, sweet spice and a subtle smoky oak edge. It has the richness you want from Barossa, but the 2021 vintage brings freshness and balance rather than sheer weight.

On the palate, it is dry, full-bodied and generous, with ripe black fruit, velvety tannins and a long, warming finish. French and American oak add depth, spice and roundness, while the best-barrel selection gives the wine extra concentration and polish. A brilliant choice for anyone who loves classic Australian Shiraz: rich, smooth, comforting and ready for proper food.

For when
A steak night needs a big Barossa red.

Pairs with
Dry-aged ribeye, braised lamb shank, beef short rib, venison pie, smoky aubergine, mushroom and lentil ragù, barbecue ribs or mature hard cheeses.

Berton’s Reserve range is built around matching classic varieties to the Australian regions that suit them best. This Shiraz draws on fruit from Barossa and Eden Valley vineyards, giving both depth and lift: Barossa richness, with a touch of Eden Valley spice and freshness. It is a confident, full-flavoured red from a producer known for generous Australian wines that deliver strong value.

Established by Bob and Cherie Berton in May 1996, Berton Vineyard is a brilliantly consistent and high-quality wine producer. The estate covers 30 hectares of land located on gently rolling hills at 450 metres above sea level, in a subregion of Eden Valley in South Australia. The superb Reserve Shiraz and Reserve Chardonnay wines are still sourced from this plot. In 2007, Bob purchased the Yenda winery in the heart of the Riverina. This state-of-the-art facility has the capacity to process 20,000 tonnes and enables Berton Vineyard to produce value for money wines which sit alongside their premium single-vineyard offerings.

Fermentation took place in stainless Ganimede fermenters for eight days between 25 to 28°C. Each parcel was pressed at 0.5 Baumé through a bag press into stainless steel tanks. Each parcel was clarified via centrifuge, and then transferred to new and used French and American oak barrels for approximately 12 months. A barrel selection took place of the best parcels, with blending over several days, ultimately arriving in this rich, spicy and complex blend.
