Tasting note

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. Campbell Mattinson -James Halliday Wine Companion Published 01 August 2020

In the press

Teusner is a card-carrying member of the 100 Best posse, and with no fewer than 15 headline wines in the last two decades, the hit rate here is impressive. This is a wine that shows immense breeding from the very first sip, and, texturally, it is as velvety as it gets. The fruit is sourced from Koonunga and Ebenezer, and no expense has been spared: 24 months in French oak, of which 50% are new barrels! If you love five-star luxury in your glass and don’t want to spend the earth, Albert is your man.
Matthew Jukes, 100 Best Australian Wines Report 2026

Viticulture

Sourced from two prized vineyard sites; a 75 year old vineyard in Ebenezer in the Northen Barossa, the other a 70 year old vineyard in Williamstown, in the Southern-most extremity of the Valley.

Vinification

From old (70+ years) vines at two sites in northern Barossa. The parcels are fermented separately in open vats, and the presence of whole berries as well as pumping-over (not punching down) encourages gentle extraction of flavours and tannins. Each parcel matures individually, in 40% new French oak hogsheads, before meticulous marrying of the components

Food Match

Venison or Lamb cutlets but equally suited served with a selection of fine hard cheeses would be ideal for this rich wine.
