Gibson The Dirtman Shiraz
Notes from the producer:
The Dirtman Shiraz is a hearty red wine with plenty of flavour and impact. Our most popular and celebrated wine, this renowned Barossa shiraz is named after our founder and chief winemaker, Rob 'The Dirtman' Gibson.
The fruit in The Dirtman Shiraz is sourced from vineyards in both the Eden Valley and the Barossa Valley. The two regions are distinctly different in terms of climate and dirt. Bringing them together allows us to craft a wine that celebrates classic Barossa Shiraz generosity and plushness, with a backbone of finesse that is ideal for aging.
The fruit driven palate is medium weight, displaying great balance and lively fruit characters while still soft and generous. The palate finishes harmoniously with spicy dark chocolate berry flavours supported by long lingering tannins. Lively, well balanced medium weight soft round and fruit driven. The finish is harmonious and long, leaving spicy dark chocolate and stone-fruit flavours lingering on the palate.
