John Duval Entity Shiraz 2021 Barossa Valley - 6 Bottles

Product Description

TASTING NOTES:

My aim with Entity is to produce an elegant Shiraz true to the Barossa. The Entity again includes some Eden Valley Shiraz to help maintain the elegance and style of Entity. Traditional, low intervention winemaking techniques were employed with Entity, allowing the wine to be approachable in its youth, but with ample structure and fruit depth to allow great potential for improvement in the bottle under good cellaring conditions, for at least 10-12 years. Fermentation with submerged cap and small open stainless steel fermenters. 100% barrel matured for 15 months, with 35% new fine grain French oak hogsheads (300 litres) and the balance in 2, 3 and 4-year-old hogsheads. Deep purple red. Dark fruit expression of blackberry and plum, complexed with savoury French oak. Full-bodied and generous with excellent depth of blackberry fruit, supported by the tannin structure. Texture and structure will enable good cellaring potential.
