Mountadam Vineyards Patriarch High Eden Shiraz 2021

Mountadam Vineyards' High Eden range is the selection of the best parcels of fruit from the Estate. The ‘Patriarch’ has always been Mountadam's flagship Shiraz, recognising the Patriarch and founder of Mountadam, David Wynn. This one comes from their estate vineyard, matured in 100% new French oak barriques. Full ripeness and generous new oak make for a powerful Mountadam wine that balances rich proportions with the elegant detail of this fabled high site. "Macerated satsuma plum, black cherry and blackberry fruits with underlying fine spice, purple flowers, olive tapenade, dark chocolate, berry compote, cedar and dried herb tones. Nicely weighted with rich, ripe fruits, cedar, spice and licorice on the palate, tight granitic tannins and a focused, intense black fruit exit. Perfect with heartier dishes or chargrilled meats. 92pts" (Dave Brookes, The Halliday Wine Companion).
