In the slot! A really enjoyable McLaren Vale Shiraz and a great buy for 25 bucks.
Fruit depth and density plus a neat spiciness highlight this wine. Dark plums and berry fruit lead to dark chocolate, earthiness and balanced oak (15% new seeing French and American for 18 months) add to the savoury frame. Watch it evolve in the glass - tick, tick, tick.
Enjoy now after a decant or cellar for the medium term.
