Why do we love this wine?
Rich and high in alcohol like a classic viognier, but with a creamy plushness that sings like a shiraz, this scintillating 2021 from one of the Barossa's best winemakers boasts a brilliant amount of balance. Yes, it packs a bit of a punch with 15.5% alcohol, but that's just a number when it comes to the feel of this release. You'll love the symphony of fruit, structured tannins, and creaminess as much as you'll love the floral drive. And with many years still left in the tank we reckon The Relic is one of the best shiraz viogniers in the country.
