2010 Majella Coonawarra Shiraz

Totally opaque black dark crimson red colour with very dark crimson red hue. The nose shows excellent lift with perfumed aromas of ripe blackberry and liquorice followed by some spearmint chocolate like scents and spicy vanillin oak. The palate shows the weight and richness that only a few estates, most notably Majella and Bowen Estate, are capable of extracting from Coonawarra Shiraz. Mouthfilling flavours of ripe blackberry intermixed with dark chocolate, a touch of mint, some vanillin oak characters and spice. Velvet smooth tannins combine with a soft plush mouthfeel. Excellent depth with long dark chocolate, blackberry, vanillin oak and spice aftertaste.
