Hentley Farm wines showcase the finest Barossa Valley grapes, expertly crafted to bring out rich flavors and complexity. With a strong commitment to quality, their award-winning Shiraz and Grenache deliver exceptional character in every bottle.
Opulence, complexity and balance all come to mind when thinking about the Clos Otto Shiraz… With vines planted by previous owner Otto Kasper using a cutting from an ageing and secret Shiraz clone, and tended to with almost antique machinery and a well-practiced hand, the Clos Otto vineyard consistently yields super low quantities with ultra rich flavours.

"Typically destemmed, open-fermented, 22 months in French oak, (66% new). The vintage was always likely to produce the mix of intensity and generosity, and it is indeed that. The luscious blackberry and satsuma plum fruit of the medium to full-bodied palate has a faintly savoury trimming that adds to the overall appeal. Lovely wine." - 97 Points James Halliday
