The palate is long and dark, bursting with fruit flavour. The mid-palate generosity leads to a classy and elegant finish of great length. Tremendously satisfying, the McLaren Vale Shiraz ticks plenty of boxes for Shiraz lovers out there. A deliciously smooth, rich red wine highlighting its fruit rather than the chocolate character of many McLaren wines.Critic’s Tasting Note:”Delicious, lively, spicy and linear. On the nose, this shows dark cherries, dark plums and dark chocolate as well as dried thyme and freshly ground black pepper. It’s medium- to full-bodied with plush tannins. Layered with juicy blue fruit at the center. Vivid and in control, it has a focused, flavorful and attractive finish. Drink or hold.
