Mada Shiraz 2021 750ml

These Mada wines from the Canberra district have been consistently delicious and we're glad they entered our lives. Produced from grapes grown on two separate sites and vinified separately, 40% whole bunch. I forgot to write down the bloody colour, but it's rocking a red berry and pepper nose, perfumed with a whiff of florals and faint suggestion of something kool-minty. The palate is medium bodied, and plush textured, with generous ripe plums and berry compote, a little charcuterie, lots of spice. It's a beautifully structured wine, so polished and pretty - great grip and length suggest it'll improve with a sleep somewhere cool dark and calm, and drink well for a good while yet.
