The vineyards providing the grapes for this wine are from the Blewitt Springs, Willunga and McLaren Flats districts. Fermented on skins in a mix of open and closed fermenters and then matured in French oak for around a year. Vibrant purple colour. This offers immediate notes of mulberries, chocolate and plums. There is the merest hint of very gentle oak. This has ripe black fruits on the palate, cigar box notes and black cherries. There is a slight touch of sour cherry on the finish which lingers. This will sail through five or six years, but is delicious right now. A cracking and cracking value McLaren Vale shiraz. Drink: 2021-2026. Score - 93.
