Dense with some flirtatious mulberry fruit working the edges, this is an excellent Shiraz from Yangarra Estate.
Sourced from a 2.3 hectare block with its feet deeply rooted in sandy ironstone soils, 20% whole bunches were used and it was matured in 25hL French oak Foudre (50% new) for 16 months.
Blueberries and dark plums build delicious momentum and roll forward with charismatic ease. Some smokiness and meatiness builds depth too. The dense fruit has a soft caress through the mouth before tensing up on close with a shimmer of fine spices. Give it a decant for now or embrace its beauty later.
