Quin Wines Riverland Mataro 2020

For a grape variety that can be hard to find without the usual mix of Shiraz and Grenache, this wine offers up exceptional value for money and character. It’s a user-friendly Mataro but still carries this grape variety’s renowned rustic charm. It opens up with a generous mix of aromas including chocolate, blackberry and savoury old leather with a nice touch of mocha oak. It’s then distinctly juicy with bright acidity giving vitality to punchy liquorice flavours with supple but not insignificant tannins providing heart and soul while supporting excellent length. A super primer to the joys of Mataro.
