Brokenwood RAYNER VINEYARD Shiraz McLaren Vale South Australia from Australia, South Australia, McLaren Vale by Brokenwood (12 x 75 cl)

Brokenwood is one of Australia's most outstanding producers. Based in the Hunter, this property is justly renowned for the wines from their own Graveyard vineyard. The Shiraz in particular, is a stunning example of the classic Hunter style. Iain Riggs has, over the years, built upon this reputation with wines from other regions. The success of this policy was illustrated when the 1999 Rayner Vineyard Shiraz won not only the Rhone and Syrah-Grenache trophy at the 2001 International Wine Challenge Awards but also the Red Wine Trophy. Its combination of power and elegance is exemplifies the Brokenwood style as pioneered by Riggs and his winemaker, Peter James Charteris (6 x 75 cl)

Dark chocolate, anise and all spice dominate the nose of the Jester Shiraz, which are supported by hints of French oak, cherries and coffee. A fresh and juicy mid-palate enhances tannin and length. The wine has flavours of fresh plums and liquorice with hints of blackberry and espresso. A long and lingering finish. The grapes come from the Willunga district of McLaren Vale, where there are heavy grey loam soils over sandstone, intermixed with black Biscay clay. These soils combined with the maritime climate, contribute to an even ripening period and the development of rich fruit flavours and ripe tannins. A dry winter, followed by heavy rains in spring resulted in vines with healthy, balanced canopies on moist soils. Mitolo Wines is a family owned winery, established in 1999 by Frank and Simone Mitolo, with winemaker Ben Glaetzer. Their vision is to create individual, handcrafted premium wines built on passion and an uncompromising commitment to quality. (6 x 75 cl)
