A Rich, Concentrated Barossa Shiraz from One of the Valley's Most Celebrated Boutique Producers

The 2018 Teusner Big Jim Shiraz is a rich, concentrated and beautifully crafted Barossa Shiraz from one of the valley's most respected boutique producers — and from one of the greatest Barossa vintages of the 21st century.

My Wine Man on Teusner

Kym Teusner is one of the Barossa's most celebrated boutique winemakers. Big Jim is Teusner's flagship Shiraz, named in honour of one of the Barossa's most respected old-vine growers and sourced from some of the valley's most storied dry-grown vineyards.

Tasting Notes

Deep crimson with bright fruit. Dark plum, blackberry, dark chocolate, mocha, leather and a touch of clove. The palate is full-bodied with ripe velvety tannins and a long, generous finish.

Style & Drinking Window

Full-bodied with velvety tannins. Drinking beautifully now at 7 years of age, with structure to continue through 2032. Decant 1 hour.

Food Pairing

An old-vine Barossa Shiraz from a great vintage deserves the finest beef. We love it with Australian Grass-Fed Cape Grim Rib-Eye Steak from My Meat Man — char-grilled medium-rare with bone-marrow butter, a magnificent match for Big Jim's dark plum, mocha and velvety old-vine tannins.
