Pertaringa Lakeside Shiraz 2021

A fine South Aussie red from a superb vintage, this delivers all you’d hope and represents excellent value while doing so. Quite powerful and with an impression of coiled persuasion, we have notes of mulberries, spices, cassis, plums, dry vegetation (a hint of tree bark) and enough chocolate to make Willy Wonka happy. Slightly broad on the palate, there is a gentle fade with a clean finish and satiny tannins. Will drink well for five to six years, longer if you wish. Great buying.
