The 2018 vintage in the Finniss River region was balanced – sufficient sunshine and cooler night temperatures helped the Shiraz grapes maintain good acidity and fruit concentration. The aroma is dominated by ripe blueberries, blackberries, and black plums, along with notes of black pepper, smoke, dark chocolate, and delicate spices. On the palate, the wine is dry, full-bodied, with a clean structure and well-integrated tannins that provide a serious backbone and long aging potential. The finish is long, rich, with fruit intensity and subtle hints of earth and minerality – a classic example of South Australian Shiraz.

About the manufacturer

One of Bert Salomon's dreams was to have a good selection of red wines alongside the white wines produced at the family winery "Salomon Undhof" in Austria's Kremstal region. This dream came true in far-off Australia, which Bert fell in love with in the 1960s when he was on the board of directors at the wine import company "Schlumberger." Thanks to him, Australian wine was imported into Austria for the first time. Incidentally, at that time, B. Salomon was one of the directors of the Austrian Wine Institute. He realized his big dream in 1995 when he acquired the "Salomon Estate" winery in the Finniss River region, about 50 kilometers from Adelaide. The most interesting part is that in 1866, Johann Nepomuk Hinteröcker, a descendant of the Salomon family, emigrated from Austria's Wachau region to Australia. After four years of working at the "Seven Hills" winery (in the Clare Valley) in Norwood, a suburb of Adelaide, he founded St. Ignatius College. Who could have known that more than a hundred years later, Salomon's descendants would return to Australia and once again cultivate grapes?
