EVANS & TATE |
NEW in Vintages. Lovely expansive, intense, ripe, black-cherry-cassis fruit with some complex, earth-tinged, cedar-sandalwood notes. Dry medium-full bodied, well structured, complex, faintly smoky, intense, black-cherry-tinged, ripe Damson plum flavours with a lingering, gently cedary, bright finish. Harmonious, well structured and delicious, this 100% Shiraz has 14.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L21091 on the back label. Aged for 12 months in a mix of new and seasoned French oak, it has a screwcap closure. |

TASTING NOTE: Terrific shiraz from this excellent vineyard in an excellent year. Engages from the start with scents of spicy, infused plum and cherry, with a little vanilla pod concentration. The palate is seamlessly structured, with fine, powdery tannins sitting within the powerful fruit. It's such a poised wine that builds effortlessly through the palate to a long finish. So bright and energetic. Cellar: 12 years. Score - 96 (Ray Jordan, The West Australian, July 21, 2021) |
