🍷 INCREDIBLE VALUE BAROSSA SHIRAZ – TWO GENERATIONS OF WINEMAKING ROYALTY BEHIND THIS EXTRAORDINARY WINE!

2023 Dolan Family Wines 33cwt Shiraz Cleanskin – Barossa Valley, SA

RRP $35 per bottle | $420 per dozen

🏆 Previous Vintage: 92 Points – The Wine Front

When two generations of one of Australia's most respected winemaking families come together to produce a Barossa Shiraz, you know you're dealing with something special.

The 2023 Dolan Family Wines 33cwt Shiraz is the creation of father-and-son winemaking team Nigel and Tim Dolan, two names with an extraordinary pedigree in Australian wine.

Nigel Dolan is quite simply one of the most accomplished winemakers the Barossa Valley has produced. His remarkable career has included senior winemaking roles at Saltram, Foster's Group and Wyndham Estate, along with an extraordinary collection of trophies and industry accolades.

His achievements include:

  • 🏆 1996 Advertiser South Australian Winemaker of the Year

  • 🏆 2000 Barossa Winemaker of the Year

  • 🏆 2002 Qantas Australian Winemaker of the Year Finalist

  • 🏆 2002 Baron of the Barossa

  • 🏆 2009 Winestate Australian Winemaker of the Year

  • 🏆 Three-time winner of the prestigious Stodart Trophy at the Brisbane Wine Show (1985, 2000 and 2003)

Nigel has won virtually every major Australian red wine trophy during his extraordinary career. Few winemakers can boast that sort of record.

His son Tim Dolan is the current Chief Winemaker at Kaesler Wines, one of the Barossa Valley's most respected producers, and brings his own considerable expertise to this family venture.

Together, they have created a Shiraz that reflects everything we love about the Barossa Valley: generosity, richness, concentration and beautifully balanced fruit.

🍇 THE WINE – CLASSIC BAROSSA SHIRAZ WITH SERIOUS PEDIGREE

The 2023 33cwt Shiraz is a wonderful expression of the Barossa's signature grape variety, combining the region's naturally generous fruit with the experience and craftsmanship of two exceptional winemakers.

Expect layers of ripe blackberry, dark plum and black cherry, complemented by notes of sweet spice, liquorice and subtle chocolate. The palate is rich, generous and beautifully rounded, with plush dark fruit, supple tannins and a satisfying, lingering finish.

This is the sort of Shiraz that makes the Barossa Valley famous around the world: full of flavour, approachable and incredibly enjoyable, yet with enough structure and depth to reward those who appreciate seriously well-made red wine.

The previous vintage received an impressive 92 points from The Wine Front, further highlighting the quality and pedigree behind this family project.

💥 WHY THE CLEAN SKIN IS SUCH AN EXTRAORDINARY OPPORTUNITY

Here is where things get particularly interesting.

The 33cwt Shiraz ordinarily carries a recommended retail price of $35 per bottle, or $420 per dozen.

However, this release is available as a cleanskin, presenting an opportunity to enjoy a wine from two highly accomplished Barossa winemakers without paying the usual price associated with its pedigree.

The absence of a conventional branded label doesn't diminish the winemaking experience, vineyard character or craftsmanship behind the wine.

For anyone who loves a generously flavoured Barossa Shiraz, this is exactly the sort of opportunity worth taking seriously.

Two generations of winemaking expertise. An extraordinary collection of Australian wine show trophies. A previous vintage rated 92 points by The Wine Front. And a wine with a normal retail price of $35 per bottle.

This is Barossa Shiraz with a remarkable story behind it, and one that deserves a place in any Shiraz lover's cellar.
