Irvine Altitude Estate Grown Shiraz 2023

This is a subtle and gently presented Shiraz from Eden Valley. The colour is a little lighter, though still showing good concentration. The nose is more in that red fruit spectrum with a raspberry, spicy, slightly confectionary character. The palate is medium-bodied, with the fruit getting just a touch of oak. The tannins are fine and gentle, and the fruit retains its juicy vibrancy. This is a wine ideal for drinking in the short term. And if you chilled it ever so slightly in the warmer months, it would be mighty fine.
