2020 Monteperle Reserve Shiraz

2020

Reserve

Shiraz

Deep red black in colour with ruby hues. The nose has intense lifted black fruit, pepper and spice. The palate has deep plum fruits, blackberry, with a rich full-bodied mouth feel. Firm velvety tannins give the wine a lovely mouth filling presence and will ensure great aging potential.

The well-composed and quite seamless 2020 Shiraz Reserve Barossa Valley has settled into a nice groove with its robust blueberry and blackberry aromas topped by a gentle spicy lift and new oak backbone. Dry and dense, the palate is less expressive but does have the structure and integrity to hold over the medium term.

Deep crimson. Black cherry, roasted chestnut, mocha, wax polish aromas. Richly concentrated blackberry, black cherry, mocha, waxy flavours with vigorous firm gravelly tannins. Finishes grippy and fresh.

Andrew Caillard MW, 91 points, 2024

Melted dark chocolate aromas with notes of intense blackberries, blueberries and spicy undertones. Fleshy and dense, quite powerful palate.
