2017 Wallace Shiraz-Grenache

Vininformation

92 point, James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion: "This is a nice drink. Thrills with a chill! Sweet berry fruit notes sashay to Turkish delight and kirsch, all licked by briar and a dash of vanillin oak. There is old-turf-vinosity to this, with length and effusive energy."

Wallace er lavet på 72% Shiraz og 28% Grenache fra det eksklusive Ebenezer-distrikt i Barossa Valley. Shiraz-delen er lagret 16 måneder på 2 - 3 år gamle fade fortrinsvis af fransk eg, mens Grenache-delen er uden påvirkning af fad for at bevare renheden og den friske, aromatiske frugt. Duften er kompleks sammensat af intens bærfrugt, orangeskal, vanille og mineraler. Smagen er saftig og kontant med stor fylde, og munder ud i en lang, varm finish. En vin, der både giver stor umiddelbar nydelse, men som også opfordrer til fordybelse. 

90+ point, RobertParker.com: "Yes, the 2017 Wallace Shiraz-Grenache blend is heavily weighted toward Shiraz (as usual), but it's the Grenache that makes itself known on the nose, adding lovely florals and raspberries to the slightly darker toned fruit of the Shiraz. Medium to full-bodied, this is supple yet crisp—perhaps a bit youthful and angular—but finishes with silky tannins and plenty of length. In another year or two, it might rival the impressive 2016."
