About this wine
SCHWARZ WINE COMPANY Nitschke Block Shiraz, Barossa Valley
The Nitschke Block vineyard is on Bethany Road, on the eastern edge of the Barossa Valley floor. It was planted by Jason Schwarz’s parents in 1968 and he made his first wine using grapes from here in 2001. The vineyard is pruned and picked by hand and its soils -- loam over brown and red clays -- produce an opulent wine of concentration and drive that also shows great balance and texture, year in and year out.
The grapes are fermented as whole bunches, using wild yeasts, and the wine is basket pressed and bottled unfiltered after up to 20 months maturation in one to five-year-old French oak barrels. Nitschke Block is a nutty, savoury Shiraz with herbal and spice/pepper notes leading into earth, black cherry, leather, licorice and cocoa with toasty oak in the background. The annual make is 600 dozen or less.
