2022 Tscharke Maranaga Stone Well Single Vineyard Shiraz 750ml

The 2022 Tscharke Marananga Stone Well Single Vineyard Shiraz is a powerful yet finely detailed expression of Barossa Valley Shiraz, sourced from the famed Stone Well area of Marananga. Produced by Tscharke Wines, this single-vineyard release highlights the concentration, structure, and regional identity that have made Marananga one of the Barossa’s most celebrated subregions for Shiraz.

The Stone Well vineyard benefits from old vines, warm days, cool evenings, and classic Barossa soils that naturally deliver fruit of depth, intensity, and balance. The 2022 vintage provided excellent conditions for flavour development and tannin maturity, producing a Shiraz of richness, aromatic complexity, and impressive structure.

In the winery, fruit was handled with a thoughtful, minimal-intervention approach to preserve vineyard character. Careful fermentation and maturation enhanced texture, savoury detail, and integration, allowing the site’s natural expression to remain the focal point.

The wine opens with intense aromas of blackberry, dark plum, and blueberry, layered with notes of liquorice, black pepper, dark chocolate, and subtle earthy spice. The palate is full-bodied and concentrated, yet composed, showing dense dark fruit, polished tannins, and balanced acidity. A long, powerful finish reveals both the warmth of Marananga fruit and the structure expected from a serious single-vineyard Shiraz.

Approachable with decanting in its youth, the 2022 Marananga Stone Well Single Vineyard Shiraz will reward medium- to long-term cellaring, developing additional savoury complexity and tertiary depth.

A bold and site-expressive Barossa Shiraz for collectors and enthusiasts seeking power, provenance, and authentic single-vineyard character.
