2017 PAXTON MCLAREN VALE SHIRAZ "Picked and fermented parcel by parcel, destemmed, 14 days on skins, matured in new and used French and American hogsheads for 12 months.The mouthfeel is excellent, supple and smooth, the medium-bodied flavours a neat blend of black fruits, dark chocolate and a gently savoury seasoning.Great value." 94 Points "There's a swathe of ripe plums, summer berries and chocolate on offer here with a juicy, mid-weight feel on the palate that has a gently meaty twist of savory complexity. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now. Screw cap." 91 Points "Dense purple with red hues. A great density of fruit with layers of chocolate, plum, mocha, and vanillin spice. Full bodied wine with a beautiful primary fruit character of sour cherry and Empress plums. Lovely integration of oak and fruit with a seamless texture and tannin profile."
