Shanahans The Old Dog Shiraz 2023

Product Details

Deep dark core with opaque magenta edge. Lifted aromatics with plums, spice, chocolate, black fruits with olive and aniseed notes. C oncentrated palate which is defined by exceptional depth and weight, wonderfully framed with some velvety texture and fine-grained tannins. Plum, blackberry and spice all play roles with opulent fruit driving the wine with the complexity being derived from some chocolate, tobacco, aniseed and well-integrated oak having the deftest influence. We release this wine to ensure the drinkability upon release as well as longevity although do suggest allowing this exceptional Shiraz to breathe and allow the tannin to melt away to truly reflect perfectly who we are and where we are in terms of fruit source and sub regional character from another great Barossa Valley vintage, which celebrates our commitment to the region, traditional winemaking, and hands off approach.
