Tasting Notes
Kingston Estate’s premium “Empiric” Single Vineyard Shiraz showcases a wine that is a true representation of Australia’s most famous and illustrious wine region – Barossa Valley. Hand selected parcels within the vineyard produce a wine of exceptional quality. Empiric is a natural expression of the soil and micro-climate in which the grapes are grown.
The Mediterranean climate of the Valley produces full bodied wines with rich and complex character. Empiric has vibrant and rich blueberry and dark cherry aromas which immediately jump from the glass. It shows a bold and opulent palate filled with generous red berry fruits and dark plum, combined with the perfect presence of supple tannins.
