Description
In 1973, Wolf really hit his straps by making the first Wolf Blass Black Label. Black Label would go onto win the 1974 Jimmy Watson Trophy, an accolade that is still considered Australia's most prestigious and sought after wine award. This victory helped provide the impetus to start exporting to the world and to establish John Glaetzer in the role of Senior Winemaker. John would go on to become one of the most proficient award winning winemakers Australia has ever seen. And as if one wasn't enough, Wolf Blass Wines went onto win two more Jimmy Watson Trophies in 1975 and 1976, followed by a record fourth Jimmy Watson win in 1999.

Sommelier Review
Michael Leitner“Deep purple-black in colour, the Grey Label Shiraz offers up alluring notes of Christmas cake, prunes, spice box and mulberries with underlying chocolate, potpourri and clove hints. Medium to full-bodied with tons of evolving black berry and baking spice flavours filling the palate, it has an approachable frame of soft, velvety tannins and balanced acidity, finishing long.another great wine for value.”
