Red Knot McLaren Vale Shiraz 2022 (Australia)
Deep red with hints of purples. Rich red berry fruits aroma with hints spice and pepper, underling blackberry and dark chocolate notes. Strong red berry fruits upfront with a touch of licorice and toasty oak. A generous mid palate is balanced by silky tannins, providing depth and persistence. A classic McLaren Vale Shiraz. Full Bodied. Drink now to 10 years
The region has a Mediterranean climate with wet winters, dry summers and plenty of sunshine. The proximity to St Vincent Gulf, coincidentally named after the patron saint of winemakers, benefits fruit quality with warmer spring and autumn conditions and cooler summers. McLaren Vale is renowned as a premium wine region of great beauty that consistently produces high quality, richly flavoured wines.
Overall 2022 was one the coolest ripening period for many of years , very good spring rains and a cooler summer allowed for slow flavour enhancement . With good subsoil moisture the fruit was in perfect condition with no rasining of berries. Vintage harvest dates were 2 weeks behind the average.
Food Pairing: Lasagna, pizza and dishes with tomato-based sauces.
