Meerea Park Alexander Munro Shiraz

Meerea Park’s flagship shiraz encapsulates all the power of 2010, embracing the juicy fruit intensity that characterises the vintage, yet doing so with great precision. This is wine of focused, ripe black plum and blackberry fruits over a field of violets and layers of white pepper, hovering above a finely textured plane of soft tannins. A healthy proportion of stalks in the ferment infuses nuances of exotics, lingering with great persistence. $65 at Simply Wines.
