AAA Shiraz Grenache, Paxton
Type: Red Wine
Grape(s): 55% Shiraz, 41% Grenache & 4% Mataro
Wine Region: McLaren Vale, South Australia
Tasting Notes: Delightful flavours of strawberries, raspberries and a hint of blueberries. The red fruit aromatics are jumping out of the glass with a slight hint of whole bunch character that is supported by subtle but delicious French oak notes. The blend of Shiraz and Grenache makes for such a bright and delicious mouthfeel. Shiraz brings the mid palate weight and intensity of flavours, while the Grenache gives some crunchy texture and mouthfeel.
The AAA on the label pays homage to David’s days in the wool trade and was stamped on the best grades of wool by the Guesser. It is a vibrant blend of Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro from some special little pockets amongst their vineyards. The Shiraz was selected from the ‘Gateway’ and ‘Jones Block’ vineyards, renowned for producing some of the best fruit in the region.
The AAA is a fantastic wine when young, with potential to get even better in bottle over 10 years plus.
Suggested food and wine pairing: A great wine with pork.
