Kurtz Family Boundary Row Cabernet Shiraz 2021 from the Barossa Valley is a full‑bodied, dark‑fruited red that blends Eden Valley Cabernet Sauvignon with Light Pass Shiraz for classic Barossa power plus a bit of cool‑edge lift. It sits in the Boundary Row range, named for the old Barossa custom of using vine rows instead of fences between neighbours.

Aromatically, expect intense blackcurrant, cassis and dark plum with black spice, earthy wild herbs, violet and sweet anise. The palate is plush and rich, loaded with tarry dark‑berry fruit, hints of bittersweet chocolate and tobacco leaf, all carried on a definite structural line of long, fine tannins. French oak is evident but subtle, supporting without dominating, and the finish is smooth, even and mouth‑watering with lingering dark fruit.

On the table, Kurtz Family Boundary Row Cabernet Shiraz 2021 is a natural match for grilled or roasted red meats, rib‑eye steak, lamb chops, hearty casseroles and rich, savoury dishes, as well as hard, aged cheeses where the tannin and dark fruit can really shine. Think of it as a classic Barossa “house red” style – generous and flavour‑packed, but with enough structure to reward a few years in the cellar if you’re patient.
