Black Opal Shiraz

lack Opal established in 1986, comes from a place of untamed territories and unspoiled land. This is Australia. The land they call "Oz". The land down under. Brimming with life, Australia is a dreamland rich in culture, diversity and natural history. This is apparent in the crystal blue skies above, in the red landscape, even the glistening opal, and a gem that dates back 60 million years. Among Australia's magnificent opals, one glows even brighter - the black opal. Like their namesake, Black Opal wines are purely Australian, offering up the glowing mystique that is Australia.
