Wine Summary Image

If you can’t beat them; join them. Baron von Nemesis Barossa Shiraz is the best of the Barossa and brilliant with anything off the grill.

Ah foiled again. Zonte’s Footstep represents generations of grape growers who have not made Shiraz from the Barossa. Well, Baron Von Nemesis, the time has come.... all the milk chocolate in the world just won’t do if you want something dark. We scoped the

entire Barossa to find this tiny parcel of old vine Shiraz that fits perfectly with our philosophy of people, place and purpose.

Winery Tasting Notes

Colour: Barossa blood red with a purple hue.

Nose: Super blackberries and pure unadulterated 90% Cocoa chocolate. Black plums, macerated raspberry with hints of cracked pepper and brambly spice.

Entry: Generous dark fruits, like mulberries and boysenberries. A full and frank Shiraz start.

Middle Palate: Classic Barossa. Generous, flavoursome with sweet blackberry pie and dark, dry cocoa mouth feel.

After Palate: Begins with sweet berry fruit then tightens up with fine fruit and oak tannin. Sweet Christmas spice cuts through the hints of jamminess.

Finish: Youthful austerity as you would expect from such a classic, old-school Shiraz. There is plenty of finesse to the tannin and dark chocolate nuances in the lengthy finish.

In Summary: We couldn’t have wished for more. Great richness with great line and length. We imagine drinking this wine with hard local chesses the cheese is optional.

Winery Profile

Zonte's Footstep is a proudly independent Australian wine company. We take our vineyards and our wine, but not ourselves, seriously.

In 2003 we pooled old white utes and new-ish tractors to grow the best grapes from the best vineyards and the wines are now at the vanguard of a revolution of Australian wine styles.

A couple of wine scribes recently noted; "The critically acclaimed Zonte's Footstep wines are not ‘old world', nor even ‘new world', Zonte's is out of this world!" and "Zonte's Footstep; Jump on board this fabulously priced wine and enjoy one of the best value wines in the Southern Hemisphere." Matthew Jukes

Zonte's Footstep is named after a 19th century Zante currant vineyard, as new plantings follow the original footstep. The currant business dried up, but Zonte's Footstep became our blueprint...

All we want to do is taste our fruit in our wine, so we charged our reigning winemaker, Mr. Ben Riggs, with one goal; to make the best wines we can, true to vineyard and variety, so long as we make a bloody good drink!

“The truth is out there in the vineyard... but the proof is in the bottle”
