Winery notes (2017 Vintage)
In the beginning we made just one Shiraz, the grape variety that has defined the Barossa as one of the world's great wine regions. But we knew Shiraz that came from some vineyards was better than others – smaller, deeper in colour and more intensely flavoured – 'Little Black Jewels' we called them. For over 20 years, Stonewell has been lauded as one of Australia's greatest wines and one of the world's greatest Shiraz.
This wine has a crimson rim with a deep black core. Full bodied, classic Stonewell with massive density and length. Classic blue and black fruits with ironstone and graphite tannins. A long life ahead, one of the all-time classic Stonewell’s. Enjoy now or cellar until 2046. Savour with rich game dishes or roast beef, or enjoy with cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano, aged Cheddar or Grana Padano.
Fermented and macerated on skins for up to 2 weeks with some partial barrel fermentation. Following pressing and clarification, the wine was matured in French oak hogsheads for approximately 18 months."
92+/100 Mike Bennie, The Wine Front, November 2022 (2017 Vintage)
"Black fruit, cocoa and baking spices, a little truffle and mint, new leather and tar. It’s dense and thickly fruited, plenty of spicy oak, boysenberry and blood plum, some char and beef jerky flavour, gummy almost chalky tannin, and a slightly sappy and salty finish of solid depth and length."
