Curtis Pasha McLaren Vale Shiraz 2019

A terrific wine from 60-year-old vines from McLaren Vale showing complex scents of stewed plum, licorice and cherry with a little vanillin extract. Deliciously soft and supple with fine ripe tannins and a liberal amount of oak from the 24 months in French and American. Spicy red berry fruit complements perfectly that natural sweet characters of McLaren Vale. Balanced and poised to drink now or tuck it away for a while.
