Mandala Wines -Yarra Valley from VIC’s Yarra Valley recently sent me a #sample of their new 2016 Shiraz. The wine spent 18 months maturing in French oak prior to being released and matched well with Argentinean BBQ with chimichurri sauce or with an eggplant and feta pizza 👌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My thoughts 💭 It’s a deep purple red colour in the glass. Whilst on the nose I pick up a medley of berry fruits sprinkled with pepper and a hint of smoke. In the mouth it’s full of vibrant, juicy plums and berries with soft tannins and a touch of baking spice. Great winter warmer at 15.4% alc/vol.

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!
