MMAD Vineyard Shiraz 2021 13.5% 750mL

TASTING NOTES
PALATE There is old vine concentration, and opulence on the palate, with notes of mulberry, blackberry, cinnamon, and dark chocolate. Generous, layered, and complex, with tannins and savoury notes that keep the fruit in check. REGION NOTES Located in the dress circle of Blewitt Springs, MMAD Vineyard was first planted in 1939, and the oldest Shiraz blocks date from 1941. The vineyard has the fine Maslin sands found in Blewitt Springs, and is exposed to the fresh sea breezes from the south-west. Below the sand is a layer of ironstone pebbles, and this combination of sand, ironstone, and cooling winds gives both perfume and structure to the wines.
VINIFICATION The fruit was hand-picked, 80% destemmed, and whole berries and whole bunches were fermented in open vats with gentle extraction. VINTAGE NOTES From the first vintage for the MMAD team, and it's hard to imagine a better season. Lovely mild ripening conditions gave beautiful balance to the Shiraz. CELLARING POTENTIAL Has the concentration and structure to develop fine tertiary characters in bottle over the next 15 years.
