Mitchell Peppertree Vineyard Clare Valley Shiraz 2019

A fine Clare Valley Shiraz which already has the benefit of half a dozen years development, quite amazing when one considers the price. It hails from an excellent vintage for the region. The colour is a blue/black centre with a magenta rim. The nose reveals notes of kitchen spices, herbs, black pepper and sage, with mushrooms, smoked meats, chocolate and aniseed. There is grip here, but good focus, juicy acidity and fine tannins, through to a lingering finish. A wine with surely at least another six to ten years of providing pleasure ahead of it. Lots to like and for anyone wanting to experience the impact of ageing a wine, hard to go past this.
