Hentley Farm Clos Otto Shiraz 2020

Hentley Farm is a single-estate boutique winery nestled amongst rolling hills in the west of the Barossa Valley. Meticulous viticultural planning and modern winemaking craft wines that perfectly balance the vibrancy of fruit, elegance of soft velvety tannins, and flavour richness distinctive of the exceptional site.

Complexity, opulence, and balance are all words coming to mind when thinking about the Hentley Farm Clos Otto. The vines were planted by the previous owner Otto Kasper using a cutting from an ageing Shiraz clone, and tended to with older antique machinery ad a well-practiced hand, the Clos Otto vineyard consistently yields super low quantities with ultra rich flavours. 

Very deep, dark, dense colour with a tinge of purple and a deep and brooding nose that shows plenty of smart oak tidily allied with rich fruit, very ripe but not jammy or jubey, the baked earth/terracotta and brown-spice aromas crowning the generous Western Barossa fruit. The wine is concentrated, dense and powerful but not overdone. A very impressive big Barossa shiraz. The structure is what makes it. - Huon Hooke, The Real Review, 98 Points
