Bremerton Bâtonnage Shiraz Malbec 2022

A blend of 69% Shiraz and 31% Malbec, this is supported by the use of French oak. The wine comes from the experimentation program run by the team, which has proved to be very successful. An opaque maroon hue here, the wine is full throttle when it comes to flavour and concentration. There are notes of chocolate, axle grease, exotic spices, smoked meats, plums, soy and cloves on the nose, along with a flick of oak still evident. A rich palate, generous, there are chewy tannins and a very long finish. The palate sees notes of espresso coffee and vegemite emerge. A most appealing wine and one sure to provide pleasure for the next ten to twelve years.
