96 Points James Halliday — Teusner's Cult Barossa Shiraz in Magnum, 15 Years of Bottle Age

The 2010 Teusner The Riebke Shiraz 1.5 Litre is a magnum of one of the Barossa's most celebrated boutique Shiraz expressions — now 15 years in bottle and in its prime drinking window.

My Wine Man on Teusner

Kym Teusner is one of the Barossa's most celebrated boutique winemakers. The Riebke is one of Teusner's signature single-vineyard Shiraz expressions, sourced from old-vine Barossa fruit and matured in French oak. In magnum, the wine evolves more slowly and gracefully — and the 2010 is now at its peak.

Tasting Notes

Deep crimson with developing complexity. Dark plum, blackberry, dark chocolate, leather, dried herbs and a touch of clove. The palate is full-bodied with ripe velvety tannins and a long, generous finish. 96 Points — James Halliday.

Style & Drinking Window

Full-bodied with velvety tannins. Drinking magnificently now in magnum format. Decant 2 hours. Drink through 2032.

Food Pairing

A 96-point 15-year-old Barossa magnum deserves the finest beef. We love it with Australian Grass-Fed Cape Grim Rib-Eye Steak from My Meat Man — dry-aged and char-grilled medium-rare with bone-marrow butter, a magnificent match for The Riebke's dark plum, leather and velvety mature Barossa tannins.
