Lou Miranda Estate Golden Lion Shiraz 2020

Appealing Barossa Valley Shiraz, with a dark magenta/garnet hue. The nose exhibits notes of dry herbs, chocolate, warm earth and lots of mocha. There is oak here, giving a little note of vanilla to the wine, but it is well handled and all is in balance. Black fruits are evident throughout this big, bold and earthy style, with good length and slightly furry tannins. It will drink nicely for the next six to eight years, perhaps longer. A style which will be much appreciated by those who enjoy a hearty red with their steak.
