Maxwell Silver Hammer Shiraz 2022

 

There are wines that greet you like an old friend and settle in beside you, content to simply listen as the day unwinds. This Maxwell Silver Hammer Shiraz offers that comforting embrace, easing you into its company with cedar highlights and dense plums that feel ripe and generous, while a flicker of pine nuts adds intrigue.

Caramel smooths the mid palate, easing into dark chocolate depths that quietly reassure rather than demand attention. Those voluptuous tannins dry out ever so slowly and grip with gentle patience, offering some chew yet holding everything together with calm composure, the kind that invites another sip and a longer stay. And perhaps I will. Pour me another, please.
