Pirathon Bronze Label Barossa Valley Shiraz 2019

A couple of years in bottle has helped this Barossa Shiraz to settle into a good place and it delivers generously proportioned chocolate and sweet mulberry fruits with coconut and vanilla oak adding some backbone. Some aged cedary notes also provide attractive complexity to a more rustic palate, with chewy tannins extending the finish. It’s a little firm so best enjoyed with rare steak straight off the barbecue.
