The Magpie Estate Shiraz / Grenache The Schnell

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2238

The 2009 Schnell Shiraz Grenache is a blend of 75% Shiraz and 25% Grenache. It gives a very deep garnet-purple color and a gamey / earthy, marmite character over intense blackberry and raspberry preserve notes with some chocolate and a spicy lift. Crisp in the mouth with a medium level of chewy tannins, this medium to full-bodied wine has good balance and a very drinkable weight with a long finish. Delicious now, it should remain delicious to 2015. Magpie Estate is a joint venture between the talented Barossa based produced Rolf Binder and UK wine merchant Noel Young. Coming through some difficult vintages, the line-up here remains solid with some very good to excellent wines to recommend. Note that no 2007 or 2008 Gomersal Grenache or Malcolm Shiraz were produced though a sneak-preview of barrel samples of the 2009 vintage of these wines promises something special to come.Importer: Total Beverage Solutions, Mount Pleasant, SC
