Credaro Kinship Shiraz 2022

This the entry level Shiraz, but it is a little confusing. Entry level wines are not supposed to be this good or to sit on a par with their “betters”. This one does. Love it, especially for drinking now while the others blossom in the cellar. In five to eight years, the other wines may have overtaken it. So enjoy it soon. Vibrant purple. This is boldly structured with notes of florals, cigar boxes (good mature cigars), spices, cherries, black fruits and cassis. Supple in texture with fine tannins, there is a good balance here between the acidity, fruit and tannins topped by impressive length. Drink now and for the next half dozen years. Terrific stuff.
