RUNRIG
The 2003 RunRig (97% Shiraz and 3% Viognier aged in 100% new French oak) represents the essence of old vine Barossa fruit. Extraordinarily opulent and rich, but playing it closer to the vest than the 2001, it is one of the most remarkable wines made in either the Southern or Northern Hemisphere. An inky/purple colour is ccompanied by a sumptuous bouquet of apricots, honeysuckle, black raspberries,blackberries, licorice, and a hint of roasted meats. The wood has been soaked up by the wines extraordinary concentration. Fashioned from four sectors of Barossa (Marananga, Ebenezer, Moppa and Greenock), it spent 30 months in primarily new oak, and was bottled without fining or filtration.
