Part of Berton’s Premium Regional mixed Shiraz pack.
Berton Vineyards, Limited, Shiraz, Heathcote, 2016
Vanilla, milk chocolate, red apple, chalk, raspberry. Red fruit of raspberry and red currant through the palate with slightly hollow mid palate. There’s a chalky, drying tannin structure with a sharp acid profile and a little heat. Highly strung and perky for such a full bodied wine, like a drag queen in full flight post 3 tequila shots. I like the rusticity and drink to have this in tumblers with beef tostadas.
