Hobbs Shiraz

Hobbs 1905 Shiraz 2021 from Flaxman Valley in the Barossa Ranges is a flagship, old‑vine Shiraz of immense concentration and elegance, delivering plush dark fruit, fine oak and serious structure from vines planted in 1905.

Deep vibrant purple‑red in the glass, it opens with macerated plum, blackberry and dark cherry, ripe raspberries and dark red berries, warm cedar, vanilla and a spicy peppery undertone, plus hints of sage, chocolate, coffee grounds and roasted meat complexity. The palate is full‑bodied yet silky and glossy, packed with plush fruit, milk and dark chocolate, aniseed, tobacco leaf and cloves, framed by beautiful fine‑grained tannins and a long, velvety, layered finish built for decades in the cellar.

It’s a powerful match for slow‑cooked beef, lamb shoulder, venison, rich stews or aged hard cheese. Hobbs 1905 Shiraz 2021 sits in the Barossa Super 100 Classification and carries stellar scores up to 97 points, making it a genuine statement wine for collectors chasing depth, longevity and true old‑vine Barossa character.
