Wirra Wirra RSW Shiraz 2019

Shiraz | Mclaren Vale, South Australia, Australia

Named after Robert Strangways Wigley, a noted South Australian eccentric and state cricketer who established Wirra Wirra back in 1894.  A flagship shiraz that befits McLaren Vale’s reputation as a first class producer of this varietal and home to some of the oldest shiraz vines in the world.

Colour
Rich mahogany tones around a youthful, deep core of black plum.

Bouquet
Rolling waves of deep, glossy McLaren Vale shiraz. Fruits are scented with mulberry, dried figs, cinnamon, and clove. The swell of brooding spice, charcuterie, and rich black fruit is held in
place by an undertow of fine French oak and dark chocolate.

Palate
The palate contrasts ripe, generous fruit with linearity and purposeful structure. Deep satsuma plums, French polish, and vibrant acid line are signature in style. Powdery tannins leave a
lengthy finesse.

Cellar
Can be enjoyed upon release, but will develop up to 2036 years with careful cellaring.

Food Match
Char-grilled skirt steak, medium rare, thinly sliced. Accompanied by grilled eggplant, portobello mushrooms, olive oil, dried herbs, salt and black pepper.
