Description

99 Points from James Halliday

“Barossa Valley Shiraz doesn’t come much better than this. The vintage was perfect, but few nailed the opportunity as well as winemakers Kym Teusner and Javier Moll. The Silky elegance and balance are coupled with purity and freshness in a manner seldom seen.”  JAMES HALLIDAY 

Albert Shiraz is named after Kym Teusner's Grandfather, Albert Alfred Teusner. The Albert Shiraz is made from parcels of fruit sourced from a couple of our favourite vineyards, an old block at Ebenezer in the Barossa’s North and another in the Barossa’s Far North at Koonunga.

"The old vineyards produce small yields of amazing concentrated fruit flavour, with soft, supple and velvety tannins that set them apart from the younger stuff. Plenty of blackberry, black satsuma plum, black cherry and cassis with great intensity and length. The ‘21 reds all show superb structure and I’m fairly confident in saying this is one of our best Alberts yet.”   KYM TEUSNER, WINEMAKER

A bottle of Teusner Albert wine from Barossa Valley, vintage 2021. The bottle is upright with a black screw cap and a slender neck, tapering to a wider base. The label is clean and simple, predominantly white with black text. It features the brand name "Teusner" in a bold serif font at the top, a small map of Australia indicating the Barossa Valley location in the center, and the word "ALBERT" in all caps at the bottom. The background is plain white, accentuating the bottle's silhouette.

Winemaker's Notes

"I reckon the 2021 was one of the best seasons that I have ever seen. Textbook perfect – cold wet winter, cool sunny spring, warm long ripening period with cool nights delivering fruit with great flavour, beautifully balanced acids and tannin. The wines are stylish and full with great poise and structure, and our 2021 Albert Shiraz is a great ambassador for a great vintage.
