Clo Lake George Shiraz 2019

Share

Blackcurrant, dark cherry and broken slate tiles with plenty of kalamata olives and fresh rosemary. The cool climate of Lake George really sweeps through with the acidity and moderate body weight. Fine grained tannins keep this in the ‘wine with food category’, just when you thought, nah I could drink this on its own. Another example of a wine with character and presence in the line up from Chris Loth. 

Excited to see where his new Sunnyside vineyard will take his journey. CLO wines are certainty progressive and confident for a brand in its 8th vintage with this new release.
