TASTING NOTES

This intensely flavouredBurgoyne’s Block is a stylish blend of 25% Grenache and 29% Shiraz grapes with 46% Mourvedre grapes. These fruit parcels were harvested and crushed in batches. Post-maturation in a combination of old American, French and Hungarian oak hogsheads, the resulting blend flaunts a medium to deep red colour with brick red shades. The fragrant nose emanates delicate scents of strawberries, cherries, spice and floral notes. The medium-bodied palate packs enticing flavours of strawberry, vanilla, candy, pepper and red berries. Fine-grained tannins integrate with these classic characters to culminate the wine in a lengthy and sophisticated finish. Drink this flavoursome red blend from Rutherglen Estates fresh upon release or within 3 to 5 years from vintage. It complements foods like gourmet sausages with parsnip mash and caramelised onions or barbecued cumin and coriander crusted lamb racks with an asparagus, baby corn and mint salad.
