2020 vintage. MV Shiraz. MV stands for both Mc Laren Vale and Multiple Vineyards, as this is a 100% Shiraz blend from 4 of the 6 biodynamically farmed Paxton estates. All parcels were vinified seperately, aged in French oak and blended prior to bottling. Intense perfume of blackberries and subtle spices with a hint of eucalyptus. Fresh, energetic and balanced with very good spicy length. Abv. 14%.

Barossa lite. Big, jammy, liqueur esque, but with a barnyard, earthy funk to it.

Color:deep garnet nose: red fruits, black pepper, tobacco taste: good balance of tannins and rich fruit finish: faded fruit to pepper. Great value

Maybe I was super dehydrated or maybe I was allergic, but this made my face swell up after drinking with Nepalese food

A silky mouthful of berry, has a solid body bordering on saltiness to it. Tingle of acid in tongue tip balances it out. I liked it!
