Thommo's son and assistant winemaker Dan secretly wishes this was called the Dan Block but we all have dreams. The Dam Block sit across the ridge from the famed Thomas Wines Kiss block. An extroverted Shiraz as Thommo puts it, this is an expressive medium-bodied delight.
A small 2 acre site, the fruit is said to be the most delicious of all Shiraz parcels that fall under the Thomas Wines banner.
Elevated with a lifted fragrance, blueberries and raspberries waltz with red plums. The hum of fine spices circles the wagons with a generous earthiness. Tense tannins meet a bright and vibrant acidity that has the hallmarks of a quality aged red wine. Tuck this away and you'll be thrilled with the result.
