Tasting Note
The MARSCHALL is a Barossa Valley Shiraz, named as a tribute to the legendary Barossa Valley Vignerons who pioneered the planting of the old treasured vineyards, which the Barossa enjoys today. David Marschall was a man of many talents and in conjunction with growing exceptional fruit was a revered martial artist, actor and demolition expert. His legacy lives on through his vineyards within the Tanunda and Ebenezer districts, which make up the backbone of this wine.
The Marschall Family vineyards are located in the Tanunda and Ebenezer districts of the Barossa Valley. The Tanunda vineyard is grown on sandy soils which typically produce aromatic styled Shiraz, while the rich iron clad soils of Ebenezer produce a more dense fruit core and structured styled wine.
Deep garnet in colour, an alluring mix of blackberry, red licorice and spiced plum aromas. The palate is fresh and vibrant, rounded and fleshy. A modern styled Barossa Valley Shiraz, which is delicious drinking now that will mature well for the medium term.
Wine & Cheese Pairing
For cheese pairings, you may want to try strong and aged cheeses such as Gouda or Cheddar. These types of cheeses have a bold and nutty flavor that complements the wine’s rich flavors and tannins.
Another great option is a creamy and tangy blue cheese such as Roquefort or Gorgonzola. The pungent and salty taste of these cheeses pairs well with the wine’s spicy and fruity notes.
