2022 Flavabom Vine Dried Shiraz History: Byrne Vineyards established in 1960 near Devlin’s Pound in South Australia where they planted a vineyard. Here began the Byrne family passion for wine and viticulture. In 2001 Byrne family acquired the Scotts Creek vineyard in which was established by Penfolds. The site was chosen due to its close proximity to the Barossa Valley, the excellent limestone soils and ideal climate for premium wine production. Over the last two decades, Byrne Vineyard has adopted innovative sustainable practices allowing water to be returned to the natural environment and preserving our wetland. Flavabom: We’re not called Flavabom for nothing…Just as the name suggests, Flavabom is packed with a juggernaut of vibrant flavors that pop on the palate. Lusty, distinctive and packs a punch with every sip. Flavabom keeps its promise. Vinification & Winemaking: The Shiraz grapes grown on the estate, serve as the backbone for this concentrated style. Underwent vine drying before harvest, they preserve the natural, concentrated flavors and sugars. This wine narrates the commitment to sustainable vineyards, and the inherent intensity of Shiraz that unfolds in the glass.
