This McLaren Vale Shiraz, from the 2021 vintage, is expected to present an enticing aromatic profile of dark plum, ripe blackberry, and cassis, intertwined with notes of black pepper, dark chocolate, and a hint of smoky vanilla from oak influence. On the palate, it will be full-bodied and robust, showcasing concentrated dark fruit flavors complemented by firm yet integrated tannins and a vibrant acidity. Expect additional layers of licorice, spice, and perhaps a subtle earthy minerality, leading to a long, persistent finish with lingering fruit and savory complexity.
