Brokenwood McLaren Vale Shiraz 2022
The Brokenwood McLaren Vale Shiraz embodies the bold and expressive character of this renowned wine region. This Shiraz showcases a deep purple hue with lifted dark cherry and ripe blackberry aromas. On the palate, the wine bursts with rich flavours balanced by fine tannins from both the fruit and oak aging. The result is a distinctive Brokenwood style Shiraz that beautifully reflects the unique terroir of McLaren Vale.
Machine-harvested grapes are fermented in a combination of open and roto-fermenters to preserve the delicate fruit characteristics. The wine is then matured entirely in French oak barrels, adding a touch of complexity to the overall profile.
The Brokenwood McLaren Vale Shiraz is a perfect culinary partner for lamb dishes in all forms. Its bold flavours stand up to the richness of lamb, creating a truly satisfying pairing. While enjoyable upon release, this wine can be cellared for the medium term to further develop its complexity.
