2023 Rusden Chookshed Zinfandel

£42.00

Rusden’s Chookshed Zinfandel 2023 is a bold, full-bodied Barossa Zin that channels California swagger with Aussie sunshine. It’s the perfect bottle for fans of rich, spicy red wine.

Grafted 1970s vines near the chook shed give intense Zinfandel fruit. This impresses with its orange peel and dark chocolate layers. Grab one for winter barbecues or bold flavoured feasts.

Winemaking: Warm fermentation to extract colour and spice followed by a gentle pressing. Aged for 36 months in 2nd fill French oak to integrate spice and fruit.

Pairing Suggestions: BBQ ribs, chocolate plum cake, aged cheddar cheese.

Tasting Note: The nose shows liquorice, cedar and spice. The palate delivers orange peel, dark fruits and rich chocolate notes, all framed by oak and spice.

Origin: Barossa Valley, Australia

Alcohol: 15.0%

Blend: Zinfandel

Rusden

Rusden Wines began as a weekend passion project in 1979 when Christine and Dennis Canute coaxed new life into a run?down Vine Vale vineyard. What started as a “hobby farm” has evolved into a hands?on family estate where each vine is coaxed back to its best through meticulous grafting and pruning. Today, Christian and Amy Canute carry forward that legacy, blending old?world Barossa grit with a fresh, experimental spirit drawn from the region’s pure white sands over red clay.

Rusden’s signature lies in balance and structure: wines that champion vineyard terroir rather than cellar wizardry. From the grafted Grenache and Shiraz in their Driftsand GSM to experimental releases like Wildwood Cinsault, every bottle tells the story of Vine Vale’s unique soils and the Canute family’s unwavering belief that quality trumps quantity.
