McGuigan Single Batch Project Shiraz 2020 (Australia)

Description

• American oak
• Dark fruits
• Pepper & spice
• Soft tannins

This wine displays aromas of dark fruit with hints of back pepper and spice. A medium body wine, this Shiraz show luscious fruit flavour with soft tannins giving the wine great length and complexity.

Batch 19SHI#07X1 was crushed and de-stemmed to varying red fermenters where the fruit was fermented on oak at cooler temperatures of 18 – 22oC for 5 – 7 days. Fermenting at cooler temperatures allows the fruit flavours to be nurtured and enables retention of varietal characteristics.

Every vintage, each wine parcel is allocated a batch code, separated from other batches and treated independently to ensure cleanliness and purity of winemaking. With Mother Nature ensuring each year offers new possibilities and hope of a celebrated vintage, these codes are the only constant, and have come to symbolise our family’s commitment to always make the wine the hero.

Food Pairing: It matches perfectly with a range of rich and hearty red meat or pasta dishes.
