Tintara are not only a historic winery in South Australia, they are also embracing modern winemaking techniques to produce flavoursome and full-bodied Shiraz like this beauty from McLaren Vale. Displaying concentrated flavours of dark forest fruits, plum and cocoa to complement the sweet vanilla oak. Fine grained tannin carries the balance of this luscious McLaren red which gives the palate a rich and even persistence.


TASTING NOTES

Poured into a glass, this vibrant Shiraz flaunts a deep red colour. The luxurious bouquet offers blue and red fruit fragrances, in addition to notes of violet, mulberry spice and dark chocolate. These red fruit and cocoa characters get replicated in the full bodied palate, coupled with fruitcake flavours and hints of spice. Supported by a great acid balance and fine grained tannins, the flavoursome palate culminates in a long and lingering finale. Pair this multilayered red wine with a rib eye steak, beef stew, or rack of lamb, to have a delicious and filling meal.
