Angove's Vineyard Select McLaren Vale Shiraz 2005
 |
|
BN#197460 |
Deep ruby red with inky purple hues. The nose displays upfront cherry and liquorice flavors and secondary humus and spicy oak so redolent of McLaren Vale Shiraz. The full palate shows more luscious ripe berry fruit with complexity provided by soft mouth filling tannins. The freshness shows potential for aging but the softness allows enjoyment now.
Wine Enthusiast
From a single McLaren Vale vineyard, this is fermented in old-fashioned open-top cement vats, then aged 18 months in American oak. It’s a spicy Shiraz, filled with clove, star anise and meaty notes, but backed by plum and cassis flavors that roll out luxuriously across the palate.
Score: 88.
