Giaconda Warner Vineyard Shiraz 2019

Seriously good any way you look at it: stylish presence in the glass, the meshing of fruit and oak, tannin management or the sheer enjoyment it brings. A world of black- and blue-berried fruit awaits; intertwined with an autumnal, earthy, undergrowth character, deep spice and a touch of savouriness. Glides with the aid of supple tannins to a firm, lingering close. Drink to 2045. 96 Points. Jeni Port, Halliday's Wine Companion.

A strong red to purplish hue. Undergrowth, briar, dark raspberry and chocolate, paprika with a sweet overlay of cinnamon and star anise. An immensely appealing bouquet, indicative of a long slow ripening where the fruit was not rushed to maturity. The palate is a mirror of the bouquet; suave and sophisticated, round and rolling, spicy and vibrant. A tea leaf and twig structure adds to red fruits with acidity light and fresh. A wine of great depth yet full of subtle notes that shine long on the palate. – Winery’s Notes
