    95 Points & 5 Stars Huon Hooke
    95 Points & Special Value Wine James Halliday

    In 2002, Teusner’s first vintage, made only one wine…an unoaked GMS blend  called Joshua. With that wine selling out quickly, they decided to have a crack at releasing a second wine from the vintage, a different take on the original blend and aged in old seasoned oak for 12 months. Loosely interpreted, Avatar can mean ‘transformation’…so a pretty good moniker for a wine fondly referred to as the older brother for their Josh’.

    Whilst Shiraz might be the poster boy for the Barossa, Teusner believe blending it with Grenache and Mataro produces the best drinking wines from this region. Thanks to their good mates the Riebke brothers and other Barossa growers whose families have stuck by these varieties for the past 100 years or more, they’re privileged to have fruit from very old vines to make great GMS blends.

    The blend percentages for Avatar might change each vintage, but the recipe doesn’t vary much…Grenache (55%) for spice and bright red fruits, Mataro (30%) for some savoury earthiness and depth….Shiraz (20%) for plump plum and rich black fruit.

    “Good colour; a blend of grenache, mataro and shiraz matured in used oak. An instantly appealing bouquet with bright polished fruits turns right on the palate with spicy and savoury embellishments that provide flavour balance and very good mouthfeel.” – 95 Points & Special Value Wine James Halliday

    “Full red colour with a tint of purple, the bouquet shows charry-smoky, cold-ash aromas at first, revealing spiced berries as it aired. The wine is very rich and dense, full-bodied and concentrated with lashings of supple tannins and a long carry augmented by some alcohol warmth. Luscious, full-flavoured and almost opulent.” – 95 Points & 5 Stars Huon Hooke
