Description

  • Toasty oak
  • Red fruit
  • Black pepper
  • Lingering tannins 

Deep Crimson with purple hues in colour, the Reserve Shiraz displays red fruit characteristics with notes of black cherries and black pepper, intertwined with toasty oak. This well balanced wine, has upfront fruit and will integrated oack giving it good length and lingering tannins.

The climate is hot with high evaporation rates and generally low rainfall, making irrigation essential. The climate is also continental, resulting in long sunny days and noticeably cooler nights. Modern viticultural and winemaking techniques mean that the climate can be seen as one of the region's strengths. Long sunshine hours ensure fruit ripens fully and low relative humidity results in little incidence of disease.

The fruit was crushed to red fermenters where the fruit was fermented on oak at cooler temperatures for 5 – 7 days. Fermenting at cooler temperatures allows the fruit flavours to be nurtured and enables retention of varietal characteristics. Post fermentation the wine is matured in stainless steel tanks, then blended, stabilised and clarified.

McGuigan Reserve was created to celebrate the craft of varietal blending. Premium fruit from South Australia’s finest wine regions is selected before being expertly blended to create an exciting synergy; varietal blends that showcase the full flavour and rich diversity found in Australia’s most celebrated winemaking state.

Food Pairing: Perfect to be enjoyed on its own or paired with a Moroccan lamb tagine or roast duck.
