Beresford Estate Blewitt Springs Shiraz 2023

An utterly gorgeous McLaren Vale Shiraz from the famed Blewitt Springs sub-region, this wine spent fourteen to sixteen months maturing in a mix of new, one and two-year-old French and American oak hogsheads. A dark and yet gleaming maroon, there is some toasty oak evident but integration is continuing well. We have notes of chocolate, leather, cassis, blackberries, coffee beans and a little mocha. The structure gives us a wine of balance, a seamless style of a generous red with silky tannins and a lingering finish. This will provide enormous pleasure over the next ten to twelve years.
