Hare’s Chase Ironscraper Shiraz Barossa Valley 2022

Top value Barossa Shiraz from the excellent 2022 vintage, where the fruit comes from block selection from the estate vineyard. Maturation is in a combination of new and older American barrels. Opaque maroon in colour, this is richly flavoured. There are still lashings of oak, but integration is proceeding well. We have aromas weaving through plums, cassis, spices, mocha, chocolate and blackberries. A wine of medium length with fine, if slightly sandy tannins, there is lots of flavour here including coffee beans and smoked meat notes. Enjoy over the next six to eight years.
