The Shiraz Riesling Blend is a long forgotten but timeless Australian blend rejuvenated, much like Syrah and Viognier grapes do in Côte Rôtie in the Rhône Valley. This is a stunning red wine for a very friendly price.What makes it so special? Perfume!
The aromas of rose buds, high-end bitter chocolate and all manner of baking spices pour from the glass. Although it is rich and fleshy, as any good red from the rather warm climate of McLaren Vale should be, the wine is anything but jammy, nor do the generous dry tannins make it overly chewy, and the freshness of flavour is delightful. It has the kind of richness, balance and complexity that one associates with wines that have much higher price tags. It’s drinking beautifully now.
