98 Point Iconic Marananga Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022 6pack

The 98 Point Iconic Marananga Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022 is sourced from vines planted more than 30 years ago, propagated from cuttings taken from some of the oldest vines on the vineyard. This heritage DNA, combined with Marananga’s renowned red-brown soils, produces fruit of depth, structure and unmistakable Barossa intensity.Matured for 18 months in seasoned oak barrels, the wine retains purity and power while allowing the vineyard character to shine. The oak is supportive rather than dominant, giving polish and length without masking the fruit’s authority.In the glass, it pours an opaque maroon with a dense, inky core. The palate is layered and commanding, delivering waves of blackberry, cassis and dark plum wrapped in mocha, chocolate and licorice. Subtle savoury complexities emerge with hints of beef stock, soy, cold tea and earthy spice, creating a multi-dimensional and compelling profile. There is real concentration here, yet the wine maintains balance, drive and impressive length through fine, structured tannins.Awarded an outstanding 98 Points, this is a benchmark Marananga Shiraz built for collectors and serious red wine lovers. It delivers both immediate impact and significant cellaring potential.Pair with slow-cooked beef ribs, charcoal-grilled rib eye, braised lamb shoulder, venison, or aged cheddar. Decant to fully appreciate its depth and power.
