99 Points – James Halliday — Teusner's Flagship Barossa Shiraz in Magnum

Teusner Albert Shiraz 2021 1.5 Litre is a magnum of Teusner's flagship Barossa Shiraz — a 99-point near-perfect-score wine in celebration format.

My Wine Man on Teusner

Kym Teusner is one of the Barossa's most celebrated boutique winemakers. Albert is Teusner's most ambitious Shiraz — sourced from the valley's oldest dry-grown vines and aged in premium French oak. In magnum, this wine ages more gracefully and makes a serious celebration centrepiece.

Tasting Notes

Deep crimson with profound concentration. Dark plum, blackberry, dark chocolate, mocha, leather and a touch of cedar. Full-bodied with extraordinary depth, ripe velvety tannins and a long, layered finish. 99 Points — James Halliday.

Style & Drinking Window

Full-bodied with extraordinary depth. In magnum, built to evolve through 2050+. Decant 2 hours.

Food Pairing

A 99-point Barossa magnum icon deserves the finest possible cut. We love it with Cape Grim Grass-Fed Tomahawk Steak from My Meat Man — reverse-seared low and slow before a hard finish on the grill, a magnificent match for Albert's monumental black fruits, mocha and velvety old-vine Barossa concentration.
