Coriole Redstone McLaren Vale Shiraz 2020 (Australia)
- French oak
- Olive leaf & raspberry
- Dark cherry
- Soft tannins
This is a classic McLaren Vale shiraz. A savoury nose of olive leaf, raspberry and blackberry bramble follows through to a soft and vibrant palate offering up plum, dark cherry and soft oak, with a violet lift. The Redstone is a fruit driven shiraz made to enjoy in its youth, though will cellar well. Tannins are soft and approachable with great fruit length.
Redstone Shiraz is produced from three vineyards in McLaren Vale each contributing complexity to the final blend. The bright fruit character from their Blewitt Springs vineyard, the savoury structure from the Coriole Estate vineyard and the earthy richness from their vineyard in Willunga. Redstone refers to the local ironstone so common in the soilsand buildings of McLaren Vale.
A cool spring with windy conditions led to a delay in bud-burst, but the season then saw record temperatures in late December. This was followedby a mild January/February, at the start of harvest they were tracking 10 days later than 2019. This trend followed throughout the season with the final fruit coming in during mid-April. Yields were below average in shiraz and cabernet but healthy crops on most other varieties. 2020 whites are showing delicacy in their aromatics, with fresh natural acidity. The 2020 reds are displaying bright red-fruited fragrance with great intensity on the palate. The resulting wines have an even tannin structure giving depth and longevity with an elegance of fruit.
The winemaking results in a softer, juicier shiraz, with more subtle tannins than is typical from their Estate grown range. Aged in French oak for 12 months, this is a balanced and very drinkable style.
Food Pairing: Greek cuisine pairs beautifully with this wine... try a slow roasted lamb shoulder generously studded with rosemary, garlic and lemon. Serve it with torn pita, chargrilled vegetables and lashings of garlic sauce.
