"The Planted series is a tribute to the centenarian vines from Barossa and to the growers who have nurtured them. It is because of their experience as world class viticulturalists that these vines produce exceptional quality. The 2017 vintage release celebrates the Marschall Old Block, an 84-year-old vineyard in the parish of Kalimna, from local grower Jeanette Marschall. This is the second release of the Planted Series", Helen McCarthy, Chief Winemaker

COLOUR - Deep crimson with soft brick hues

NOSE - The nose expresses rich dark fruits upfront with layers of toasted caraway seed, white pepper, dried bay leaf and subtle hint of allspice.
