Description
In a nutshell:
An intense, berry fruit laden Shiraz from South Australia's Barossa Valley.
The lowdown:
Elena Brooks has proved herself as a talented winemaker and this Shiraz, one of the their flagship wines, stands out as the perfect example. The grapes come from a vineyard where many of the vines exceed 100 years of age, so old some remain on their own rootstocks. After a natural fermentation the wine was matured for 18 months in a mix of new and previously filled French oak barriques and then bottled without filtration or fining. It's full of bold black fruits, eucalyptus and liquorice on the nose while rich, sweet wine gum fruit, spice, pepper and mocha notes play on the tongue. It's deliciously supple with a smooth mouthfeel and fine, grippy tannins following right to the lingering finish.
The Producer:
Dandelion Vineyards is a venture created by Zar Brooks and his winemaking wife Elena. They have a range of South Australia vineyard sites from the Eden and Barossa valleys down to the Fleurieu peninsula from where they make their well-regarded wines. Elena has achieved, in a short space of time, a remarkable degree of success which has helped to put Dandelion firmly on the map. And they continue to go from strength to strength with a range of wines which are notably good value for money.
When to drink:
Really impressive Aussie Shiraz at a remarkably good price. Great with big meaty dishes, roasts, hearty stews or barbecues.
Suitable for Vegans
