Moss Brothers Fidium Margaret River Shiraz 2023

The fruit here hails from a block, always an early-ripener, in the highly regarded Margaret River sub-region of Wilyabrup. The wine spent fifteen months maturing in French oak, 20% of which was new. The colour is a vibrant purple maroon, with a dark crimson rim. On the nose, the aromas weave through notes of chocolate, dried herbs, plums, bay leaves, mulberries and cassis. Well balanced throughout, a supple and most seductive texture leads to silky tannins on an impressively lengthy finish. This will sail through the next ten to twelve years. There really is a lot to like here.
