Barossa Valley, South Australia. Pirathon Shiraz 2019 is dark purple-black in colour. The perfumed boquet
is uplifting and indicative of a complex wine with aromas of
blackberry, plum, blueberry, rose perfume, chocolate, subtle oak and a
hint of spice. The full-bodied palate is rich and mouthfilling with
plenty of ripe dark fruits. Background oak barrel characters compliment
the bright fruit flavours. There are fine integrated tannins giving the
wine a solid structure. This is an extremely balanced Shiraz with fruit,
oak and tannin working together to provide harmony. A very lengthy
finish completes a powerful but opulent wine. Pirathon is a paramount
expression of north-western Barossa Shiraz that will reward time in the
cellar for 5-10 years...
