The Teusner Albert Shiraz is a bold and decadent wine that is sure to delight any lover of full-bodied reds. With deep ruby hues and notes of blackberry and plum, this shiraz is both powerful and complex. The aroma is rich and satisfying, with hints of vanilla and spice that play off the fruit notes perfectly. On the palate, this wine is full of vibrant, juicy flavors that are balanced by the tannins, which give it a full-bodied texture. Suited for pairing with rich, flavorful dishes or enjoyed on its own, the Teusner Albert Shiraz is a true standout in the world of Australian wines.

Tasting Notes

The Albert is a quintessential 'new wave' Barossa Valley Shiraz - finesse and balance a hallmark. A fragrant, medium weight red with boysenberry and fresh plum flavours tempered by spice. Fine-grained tannin and a subtle meatiness complete an elegant, fine-boned picture

About the Winery

Teusner Wines, the Australian wine brand, was established in the year 2001 by Kym Teusner and Mick Page. It would be surprising for you to know that the seed for this wine brand was sown when the duo heard a casual discussion in the local bar about the quality of the grapes grown in the high-quality Barossa wine area of Australia. The best fruits from the Barossa vineyards are used for making these vines. Therefore, at Teusner, ultimate respect is given to the local wine growers. Therefore, the wines created at Teusner reflect the wonderful terroirs of the Barossa region.

In the year 2002, Teusner released its first set of wine with 162 cases of the Joshua wine range. In the next two years, the brand also released other wines from Grenache, Mataro and Shiraz cultivated in selected lots in Barossa. The success and popularity of the Teusner wines are mainly due to the strong, interpersonal relationship that the owners share with the winegrowers.

In the year 2001, the brothers Kym Teusner and Mick Page paid a huge sum for safeguarding the low-yielding Grenache vines. Even today, the brothers pay a huge sum to the winegrowers to keep them happy and help them cultivate fruits of the highest quality. The fruits cultivated in Barossa and Eden Valleys are used to make Teusner wines.

Grenache, Shiraz, Mataro, Chardonnay, Semillon, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, a few GSM blends (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre blends) and Petit Syrah (also known as Durif) are some of the varietals used for making the wines under this label. Shiraz is the most used varietal, as close to 42% of the wines are made using this. At this company, a lot of importance is given to the term, commitment. According to Teusner’s own words, the most distinct thing about his wines was the commitment that his company shows to the people who support him.
