The 2016 Estate Shiraz offers abundant aromas of mulberry, dark cherry bitter chocolate and subtle hints of mohogany and gamey meats. The moorish palate is bright and engaging showing plump dark fruit and red berries and savoury earthy notes, framed by elegant yet persistent tannins. A medium to full bodied Shiraz displaying quintessential McLaren Vale dark fruits, and spice.

Shiraz has been Coriole’s principle variety and flagship wine since the first bottling in 1970. Coriole Shiraz is 100% Estate grown and the average vine age is 50 years old.

This wine is made in the traditional manner; fermented in open tanks and hand plunged, and matured in French oak hogsheads. The Estate Shiraz has impressive fruit intensity, yet is elegant and will reward further cellaring.

Food Pairing: A classic dish for a classic wine - try with a rare roast beef, with a healthy level of marbling scotch fillet stays beautifully tender and juicy. Serve laden with pepper sauce and all the usual trimmings.
