THORN-CLARKE SHOTFIRE SHIRAZ 2019

Thorn-Clarke's Shotfire Shiraz exemplifies the family's six-generation history in Barossa viticulture, dating back to the 1870s. This striking deep red-purple wine reveals the region's distinctive terroir, where Mediterranean climate and ancient soils create perfect conditions for developing concentrated Shiraz. Rich, voluptuous aromas of blackcurrant and mulberries mingle with smokey oak and clove hints—a reflection of the Clarke family's dedication that began with David's passionate planting of the Kabininge vineyard in 1987. The palate delivers impressive dark fruit and chocolate notes supported by structured tannins and lingering oak, creating a classic Australian Shiraz experience that showcases both power and finesse from this renowned South Australian wine region.
