Dandelion Vineyards Firehawk Shiraz 2022

From the first take on the nose this exceptional McLaren Vale Shiraz had me. A largely minimalist approach has been taken here and the result is a wine of suppleness and plush mouthfeel. In fact, the soft texture is a feature but there is substance with the power and intensity of the fruit evident. A sprinkle of black pepper and a trace of thyme completes things.
