Quintessential McLaren Vale Shiraz, with the added alchemy of the co-fermented Viognier skins this wine makes a statement. Bold, fragrant aromas and some peppery spice. The black Doris plum, mulberry and boysenberries are overlayed with a perfume of red fruit sweetness. All the berries! Rounded yet chalky tannins add great structure and mouth feel to this core d’Arenberg wine.

90 pts - Jamessuckling.com:“Quite a savory expression with dark plums, dried blackberries and violets, as well as fine-ground, toasted brown-spice notes, such as cloves, cardamon and mace. The palate holds a compact, flavorful stance with fine tannins wrapping dark-fruit flavors and cocoa-like notes neatly into the finish.”
90 pts - Halliday Wine Companion:“This is a more relaxed, poised and drinkable wine than recent past releases. Lanolin, dried hay, quince and apricot pith riffs expand across a juicy rail of freshness. Some breadth to this, too, with a small portion matured in French oak. Nothing too perky, shrill or out of whack. An effortless mid-weighted wine, sitting shotgun in the mouth. Very good value.”
