Maxwell Silver Hammer Shiraz 2020

The vintage in McLaren Vale turned out pretty well after a very hot December. This is an excellent value for money Shiraz with a touch of class. Ripe, plummy spicy aromas before the palate of rich dark fruit delivers on a medium-bodied palate. The slightly toasty oak is a mix of American and French, part of a well balanced wine offering plenty for this price.
