Dalwhinnie The Eagle Shiraz 2018 750ml
Dalwhinnie The Eagle Shiraz 2018 750ml
Sourced solely from the 1977 planted ‘Eagle Block’ directly in front of the winery, fruit was handpicked and cold soaked before being fermented with 20% whole bunches for ten days. The resulting wine was pressed and racked to 50% new French oak barriques and 50% one- and two-year-old barrels for a period of 20 months.
Ink black core to a deeply purple rim. Mulberry, smoked meat and dry herbs on the nose. Intense dark fruits fill the mouth, there's layers of complexing features that keep you interested, smoky meats, iodine and woody herbal layers are all noticed. Whilst there's ample intensity and complexity the wine doesn't sit heavy, there's a lift and light throughout and a fine-grained tannin profile brings great drive and definition to the long finish. Plenty of cellaring potential as well.
