Sexy Yarra Valley Shiraz at it's best here, the wine comes from the fantastic 2015 vintage and includes the addition of 3% Viognier and 20% whole bunches in the ferment.
The inclusion of Viognier in the mix gives an integrated floral note to contented plum and violets with whole bunch and time in oak providing a gentle earthen note and spice.
The wine has all bases covered with a soft and supple palate that grows in stature from start to finish as it becomes saturated with dark berry fruits. Fresh earth and charcuterie give a nod to Northern Rhone on the mid palate before a finish that pulls the wines constituent parts together in a harmonious and long finish.
A wonderful reserve release from the team at Punt Road.
