Description

A smooth and vibrant Shiraz exhibiting rich aromas of red berries, chocolate, savoury leather and spicy oak notes. The full rounded palate displays generous red berry fruit flavours, soft tannnis and a long lasting finish.

The fruit for this wine was sourced from vineyards in South Eastern Australia. The climate is hot with high evapouration rates and generally low rainfall, making irrigation essential. The climate is also continental, resulting in long sunny days and noticeably cooler nights. Long sunshine hours ensure fruit ripens fully and low relative humidity results in little incidence of disease.

The grapes were crushed and de-stemmed where it was then fermented on oak for 5 to 7 days. The majority of the wine is then matured in stainless steel tanks with a percentage of the wine transferred onto French and American oak. Post-fermentation, the wine was matured and blended allowing the winemaker to create this smooth, approachable fruit-dominant wine.

Rich, generous and approachable, the McGuigan Black Label range is your contemporary guide to Australia's most popular wine varieties. Whether it be a refreshing Sauvignon Blanc, a full-bodied Chardonnay or Australia's #1 selling bottled red wine McGuigan Black Label Red, every bottle of McGuigan Black Label is packed full of varietal flavour, proving that you need not be a connoisseur to enjoy the wine of your choice for any occasion.

Food Pairing: Pairs well with a range of dishes including tomato based pasta dishes or rich red meat dishes.
