Langmeil Shiraz Valley Floor 2014
Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaRipe, rich and structured, this Barossa shiraz spent two years in oak, 16 percent of which was new American, and the remainder older American and French. Potent blackberry, black cherry, ripe blueberry on the fleshy palate, filtered with eucalyptus and dark mocha. Tannins are sticky, but firm, and the finish echoes with kirsch and cracked pepper. Best with some sort of BBQ (winter squash, pork) to sop up the potency and alcohol (14.5 percent).Tasted: 21 August 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $29.00 | 750ml | BCLS |
