It was the “generous aromas of mulberries, dusted with exotic Indian spices” descriptor that made me intrigued to try this #ChapelHill ‘The Parson’ 2017 #Shiraz from #McLarenVale.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can’t say I picked up on those Indian spices but I did find the nose rather earthy and fresh with a hint of menthol. In the mouth I found it very easy drinking with a soft, plush nature and plentiful flavours of plums with a sprinkling of spice.

A big thanks to Dialogue PR for sending this sample over.

It’s tart, tastes like basic red wine. I’m drunk.

Did it amaze? No. But it was a solid if undistinguished $10 Shiraz that’s probably worth a second taste
