Shingleback’s blend of the two “local heroes” of McLaren Vale.

Shingleback, Local Heroes, Shiraz, Grenache, McLaren Vale, 2018

Rich nose with raspberry, blackberry, rose petals, Turkish Delight rosewater/choc, meaty charcuterie notes and an underlying sandy, minerally element. Full bodied while maintaining a tautness in youth. The flavours run through dark chocolate and berry with that intense minerality showing its hand. Tannins are firm, while the finish is lifted.
