Museum McLaren Vale Shiraz

7 Year Old Museum Release

Tasting Notes:

Strong mulberry and cherry fruit with under lying French oak which adds complexity to the bouquet. Full and vibrant fruit flavours of dark red berry and plum fill the mid palate. Soft tannins go well with the elegant under lying taste of French oak to make this a great example of a fruit forward soft and generous Shiraz. An outstanding match with all full flavoured red meat dishes. I find it goes well with the overpowering delicious flavour of barbequed spareribs!

Technical Notes:

Sourced from selected growers in McLaren Vale region of South Australia. The wine was fermented in stainless steel fermenters to retain concentrated fruit flavours. To complete the fermentation process and maturation the wine went into old oak barrels with a small percentage of new oak for a period of 12 months. The older oak used enabled the slow infiltration of the highly concentrated fruit flavour creating a well-balanced, yet complex structure designed to ensure longevity of the fruit.
