Shiraz remains the king of the Barossa Valley. There is almost 10,000 ha of Shiraz vineyards, but we can assure you that not all growers nor vineyards are the same. Different soil, aspects, clones and of course the grower themselves all make a difference.
The Hoffmann’s of Ebenezer are widely recognised as perhaps the best growers of premium Barossa Fruit. With Adrian at the helm, they have gone from strength to strength.
Adrian is one of our biggest growers and in 2023 we once again processed fruit from the Mickan, Dallwitz and Koonunga Block Vineyards.
Some years ago, Adrian took cuttings, or mass selections of the best vines in three premium barossa blocks, the Becker Koonunga Ancestor Block, Dallwitz (the home block for the Hoffmann’s) and the SCC vineyard in Flaxman Valley. In 2023 they were all very different nd we took the decision to bottle a barrel of the blend, and one of each of the 3 individual blocks.
Our Hoffmann DV Shiraz comes from the Dallwitz Ancestor Block in Ebenezer. Heartland Hoffmann fruit.
The Koonunga Shiraz, also from the Hoffmann empire comes from an Ancestor Block in Koonunga in the Barossa's North.
Each pack contains 6 wines, one of each of the 2023 Mickan Shirazs, 2023 Koonunga Shiraz and 1 bottle of our 2023 Hoffmann DV Shiraz from the old Dallwitz block:
1 X 2023 Hoffmann Mickan Shiraz
1 X 2023 Hoffmann Mickan Dallwitz Shiraz
1 X 2023 Hoffmann Mickan Becker Shiraz
1 X 2023 Hoffmann Mickan SCC Shiraz
1 X 2023 Koonunga Shiraz
1 X 2023 Hoffmann DV Shiraz
