The Thorn-Clarke family has a long history in the Barossa - six generations of involvement in the region's world famous wine industry. The Thorns have been grape growers in the Barossa since the 1870's. David Clarke's passion for the wine industry lead to the planting of the Kabininge vineyard outside of Tanunda in 1987, which represents the start of a deeper involvement by the family in the Barossa wine industry.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #800000;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #800000;\"\u003eThorn Clarke William Randell\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #800000;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e Vineyards\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;\"\u003eWilliam Randell is sourced from Thorn-Clarke's \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;\"\u003e33 hectare Kabininge vineyard (81.51 acres) is true Barossa Valley floor terroir. This is the oldest of their 100% family-owned vineyards and is situated in the heart of one of the great wine regions of the world - the Barossa Valley. Kabininge is planted predominantly to Shiraz - the variety for which the Barossa Valley is best known - supported by smaller plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. At just 270 metres above sea level and located on dark grey to dark brown carbonaceous soils (known as Bay of Biscay soil) red winegrapes ripen easily here. By monitoring soil moisture levels to limit yield and berry size, we can achieve exceptional red wines with superb varietal flavor and concentration.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"thorn-clarke-william-randell-shiraz-2008","title":"Thorn Clarke William Randell Shiraz 2008","description":"\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThorn Clarke William Randell Shiraz\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tVINTAGE CONDITIONS 2008 was a very warm year with harvest being completed in a very short period. The resultant wines from the vintage reflect the growing conditions with loads of upfront fruit and rich mouthfeel, meaning wines from this vintage will have a great deal of aging potential as well.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tWINEMAKING The grapes are crushed and de-stemmed into open fermenters. Yeast is added immediately and the grape must pumped over twice daily to maximise color, tannin and flavor extraction. Cooling is used to ensure ferment temperatures remain in the 22-25 degrees Celsius range, which allows the fruit to display maximum fruit expression. Pressing occurs approximately seven days after crushing and the wine is then put into French oak to complete fermentation. All small premium barrels remain separate to ensure the best blend is put together.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tBARREL AGING 24 months 100% French oak, 100% new.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tCOMMENTS The colour is a deep inky purple. The nose is complex with a deep concentration of black fruits, liquorice and spicy chocolate oak. The palate is full bodied with typically intense Barossa Shiraz fruit. The fruit characters are blackberry and plum, with well balanced oak. Additionally the palate is dense and generous making it wonderfully mouth-filling and with some lovely grainy tannins, it suggests the wine will improve for the next 10 to 15 years.
