Parishes Langhorne Creek Shiraz 2021

Another superb Shiraz from one of my favourite regions, and from a cracking vintage. The wine spent a year maturing in oak. Near opaque purple in colour, this is dense, rich and powerful with full throttle fruit and flavour. Intense and generous, even by Langhorne Creek standards. Loads of chocolate are the immediate impression, with black fruits, aniseed and soy plus hints of cloves. Showing fine silky tannins, the palate exudes chocolate, along with mocha and mulberries. Supple and rich in texture with really good length and balance. Love this wine, which will provide pleasure for at least a decade.
