Named after the august ratbag on the label, Jackson Barry ranged the area telling yarns and seeking fame and fortune. The hallmarks of Jackson’s Block are perfume, elegance, and balance. The perfume is that of violets and the wild thyme of the estate. The flavors are red berries and the length and balance are made complete by elegant, silky tannins.
This wine has an intense deep crimson colour with aromas of plum and dark cherry, laced with old world hints of cedar and liquorice. The palate is densely packed with flavours of forest fruits, cherry and earthy tones of mushroom, lavender and wild thyme
