"Deep but clear purple; blackberry, plum, licorice and dark chocolate are all to be found in the bouquet and medium-bodied palate; savoury tannins lengthen the palate considerably." - James Halliday.
McLaren Vale is internationally acclaimed as one of the world’s leading Shiraz producing regions. McLaren Vale Shiraz is typically graced with an opulently intense mouth coating palate which treads with a unique combination of power and grace.
The 2009 McLaren Vale Shiraz displays hedonistic blueberry, pimento and roasted almond flavours. The harmonious integration and balance of these fruit flavours with the gently textured oak, is further enhanced by the defiantly persistent and mouth filling savoury tannin structure.
