Passel Estate Lot 71 Shiraz 2018

Dense and broody with powerful concentration. There is a real sense of richness here – dark fruits, chocolate and leather with a salty beef jus character adding complexity and a savoury edge. What piques my interest is how the wine unfurls down the palate – generously textured and building in opulence. Again, clever use of oak here that doesn’t overwhelm. Serious and intensely comforting.
