2022 Moppa Shiraz is deep purple black in colour.,Aromatically it is classic Moppa. There are engaging notes of dark blue fruits, sweet spice, floral lift, and a hint of toasty oak, all in concert with each other. The prototypicality continues to the rich, full-bodied, and wholly balanced palate. There is a beautiful mesh of blue and black fruits, with ripe generosity neatly proportional with fresh vinosity. It is very richly flavoured, with integrated natural, yet notable, tannins giving a solid backbone and pleasant dryness. The oak barrel maturation is classy and well-unified providing another band of flavour. Completing this harmonic wine is a long, fruit-driven finish.
Moppa 2022 is an expressive Shiraz that can be enjoyed now or will cellar well in the medium to long term.
