2021 Bleasdale Bremerview Shiraz
Deep black dark red colour with a dark red hue. Red to dark plum and liquorice aromas mix with vanillin oak, dried herbs and subtle peppered fennel notes. Soft plush dark plum and liquorice fruits are cast across the medium bodied palate with subtle vanillin cedar, dried herb and spicy earth elements lying underneath. Very polished tannin structure with a refined mid length conclusion.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
Alc. 13.5%
Other Reviews…..
Frank Potts created a system of locks and weirs to provide flood irrigation from inception in 1850, and Bleasdale's Bremerview vineyard still uses that system. Destemmed, open fermented, matured for 12 months in French puncheons (10% new). The wine is ridiculously good value at this price, with the warming gentle palate of Langhorne Creek: plum, dark berry fruit and just enough soft tannin. Gold medals Melbourne Royal Wine Awards and Rutherglen Wine Show ’22. Drink by 2036.
