Tasting Notes
Region: McLaren Vale
Variety: Shiraz
Alcohol: 14.3%/vol
Drink: A hearty wine, perfect for the depths of winter with great cellaring potential, up to 20 plus years.
Tasting: Shiraz is synonymous with McLaren Vale and this wine is a great example of what the region has to offer. The nose is fragrant, bursting with aromas of dark cherries, plums, herbs, spices and black olives. Rich and full bodied, the palate coats the mouth with velvet like tannins leaving a warm, dry finish. Cellaring potential, 20 years plus.
“You don’t have to go past the full colour and bouquet to find a wine screaming about its variety and place. Dark chocolate coats its dark cherry and blood plum fruit, tannins and oak join the party with enthusiasm, underscoring the quality of the vintage and its long-term potential.”
