Schild Barossa Valley Shiraz 2019
Characteristics:
Schild Estate's Shiraz reflects the soft elegant palate of Schild's viticultural home in the southern portions of the Barossa Valley. The toasted herbs are distinctive, offering rosemary and bay leaf accents to the dried cherry and blackberry core, with accents of fresh orange zest and plenty of cigar box details. Expressive, especially on the finish. Drink to 2023
Food pairing: loves a chateaubriand and stews (coq au vin!). Try with your best homemade lasagne or pasta with a tomato sauce 'à la provençale'.
Schild Barossa Valley Unwooded Chardonnay 2018
Characteristics:
Grapes sourced from higher and cooler locations of the Barossa Valley to provide acid backbone and tautness, along with lower lying valley floor sites to bring intense fruit flavours to the mix. Unwooded Chardonnay, with fragrant aromas of stone fruit and white flowers. The palate gives a hint of creamy volume derived from lees stirring. Notes of white peach, tropical fruit and lemon citrus. Balanced, fresh Chardonnay.
Food pairing:
Subtle Chardonnay as aperitif, combine with sashimi, ceviche or oysters. Perfect with raw or lightly cooked shellfish like crab and prawns, steamed or grilled fish, pasta with vegetables.
About the winery:
