Winery Overview Located in Lyndoch at the southern end of the Barossa Valley, Six Gates is a boutique family-run winery renowned for crafting small-batch, single-vineyard wines. The estates vines grow on red-clay soils over limestone, gently sloping and sun-exposed, creating ideal conditions for proucing Shiraz of exceptional depth, balance and intensity. Region amp Vintage Conditions The 2019 vintage in the Barossa Valley was marked by a warm, dry growing season with low yields, resulting in highly concentrated fruit. The Block 4 vineyard at Six Gates performed superbly, producing small berries with rich flavour and fine tannin structure, the hallmarks of a classic Barossa Shiraz vintage. Winemaking Techniques Hand-picked fruit from the single Block 4 site was fermented in small open fermenters to ensure maximum control and flavour extraction. The wine was matured in a combination of French and American oak, adding layers of spice and texture while allowing the purity of fruit to shine through. Traditional methods and minimal intervention reflect Six Gates philosophy of letting the vineyard speak for itself. Tasting Notes Appearance Deep garnet with ruby highlights. Aroma Aromas of black cherry, plum and mulberry with subtle notes of vanilla, pepper and cedar. Palate Full-bodied and richly layered with dark fruits, cocoa, and hints of liquorice, balanced by silky tannins and gentle oak spice. Finish Long, elegant and savoury, with lingering notes of blackberry, spice and fine oak. Key Characteristics Single-vineyard Shiraz showcasing the power and finesse of Barossa Valley terroir Concentrated fruit with balanced acidity and polished oak influence A complex and elegant Shiraz suited for both early enjoyment and cellaring Food Pairing Recommendations Perfect with roast beef, slow-cooked lamb shoulder, or venison pie. It also pairs beautifully with hard cheeses or a rich mushroom risotto for a more refined match.
