2012
Bold, full and structured on the palate, the 2012 Johann exhibits all the synergies that make Shiraz and Cabernet a definitive blend.
TASTING NOTES
Representing our finest wine, Jacob's Creek Heritage is a benchmark of outstanding quality and style.
Named in honour of Johann Gramp, the founding figure in the proud winemaking history of Gramp & Sons beginning in 1847.
AROMA & PALATE
The bouquet is rich and dense, showcasing the Barossa’s acclaimed regional characteristics. Fresh fruitcake and licorice are balanced by slight leafy notes from the Cabernet. Oak adds lovely spice and toast nuances, and there is a slight peaty edge. This is a wine that inundates the senses.
The Shiraz imparts dark, sweet fruits and lush, fine tannins that the Cabernet restrains with structural drive and vibrant cassis. The careful selection of 100% new oak, predominantly French, supports the fruit while adding texture, layering and length to the palate. With its vibrancy, freshness and structure, this sophisticated wine has the potential to age gracefully.
