The "Alttus' Shiraz is a wine with an extremely attractive price/performance ratio - despite its considerable price. The British wine critic Jancis Robinson tasted it blind and rated it at the same level of quality as the Australian Shiraz legend "Grange', and on another occasion "definitely' categorised it as a top wine from the northern Rhône. Either way - the "Alttus' is always highly attractive. 95% Syrah and 5% Viognier form the basis for the proverbial "mouthful of wine'. Dark chocolate, blackcurrant and damson surrounded by fine minerality, smoke and spicy notes characterise its aromas, finely polished tannins its structure.

How many winemakers can you think of off the top of your head who produce wine in the northern and southern hemispheres? There are quite a few. But only a few have wineries in both regions. One of these families is the Salomon family from the Kremstal. For decades, Bertold and Getrud Salomon ran the Salomon Undhof in Kremstal, which was founded in 1792. At some point, they fell in love with the south of Australia and established the Salomon Estate on the Finniss River.
