Oliver’s Taranga Shiraz 2019

There is a nice old fashioned feel to this McLaren Vale Shiraz from the historic Oliver’s Taranga. No tricks or bells and whistles, just a well made wine where powerful fruit and sweet oak are in delicious harmony, while delivering plenty of personality and flavour. It’s also got the feel of a warm vintage with its deep ruby colour and deep set dark berry aromas with cocoa and chocolate nibs thrown in well supported by balanced coconut scented oak. It’s then got a rich and fleshy mouthfeel with lashings of blackberry jam flavours before a supple and open-knit finish. Bring this out for your next classy BBQ.
