Kevin Glastonbury, or ‘KG’ as he is known, knows the Barossa like the back of his hand. His winemaking career began straight after school, and by the time he joined Yalumba in 1999, he had already gained years of experience through hard work, experimentation, and innovation. A hands-on, get-dirty approach has been the key to his success as a winemaker.
Fruit for this wine is sourced from five vineyards across the Barossa, the oldest parcel of Shiraz is gently hand-picked from Eden Valley vines planted in 1854. With an average vine age of 80 years, 67% of this Shiraz is sourced from the Barossa Valley and 33% from Eden Valley. Barossa Valley Shiraz provides richness, density and concentration, while Eden Valley Shiraz provides the exotic aromatics and seamless palate structure.
Matured for 22 months in 28% new French oak barriques and hogsheads, balance in 1 year and older American octaves, French barriques and hogsheads.
