Backsberg Pumphouse Shiraz

$45.95 aud

Produced from intensely concentrated shiraz grapes, Pumphouse Shiraz exhibites a wonderful velvety depth.  Black cherry and mulberry otes give way to hints of aniseed and vanilla, which are derived from maturation in small French - and just a few American - barriques.

The Pumphouse, located high up on the Backwsberg property, is a humble concrete structure which plays an imperative role in day-to-day activities.  The building epitomises Backsberg's approach to winemaking, unassuming but extraordinary.
