Barr-Eden, Avenue To Gold Shiraz, 2020
The flagship Shiraz of Barr-Eden Estate (the project formerly known as Love Over Gold) — sourced from a single avenue of vines planted in 1997 at the very top of Mengler's Hill, where Eden Valley meets the Barossa at some of the highest Shiraz altitudes in Australia. Tim Howser, Joel Mattschoss, Pierre-Henri Morel, and Michael Twelftree ferment and age the wine entirely in concrete tank to preserve the cool-climate aromatic lift the site is known for — no new wood, no extraction theatrics, just transparent fruit and elevation. The 2020 shows violet, blueberry, and plum aromas layered over graphite, aniseed, and crushed herbs, with the lifted aromatic and fine-tannin frame built for ten to fifteen years in the cellar.
