Taltarni Estate Shiraz 2018 Pyrenees - 6 Bottles

WINERY INFORMATION:

Taltarni Vineyards, founded in 1969, is owned by John Goelet. It is established in the Pyrenees wine region of Victoria as John found this site very similar to the Bordeaux terroir where he comes from. Taltarni is known for its elegant and premium wines that beautifully express the regional characteristics.

TASTING NOTES:

This premium red is a blend of 95% Shiraz and 5% Mourvèdre. Grapes were partially whole bunch fermented and the wine was aged for a period of 16 months in French oak barrels resulting in rich and complex characteristics. Poured into a glass, it flaunts a wonderful deep red colour with hints of violet. On the nose, it exudes aromas of red berries, light spices and subtle earthy nuances. A medium-bodied palate perfectly balances these intense aromas. Matching flavours are complemented by dark forest fruits and a touch of oak. These characters are followed by a persistent finish marked by dusty tannins & chocolate notes. You may pair it with grilled lamb, barbecued spareribs or beef stew.
