Leogate Estate Wines
2019 LEOGATE ESTATE THE BASIN RESERVE HUNTER VALLEY SHIRAZ
An east-facing site, imbuing the freshness and detail that warmer plots can’t convey. This said, unabashedly powerful. But lifted, floral and taut. Judicious French oak positions the fruit, while providing structural latticework. More savoury. Altogether finer, better structured and transmitting of site to glass. Long. The Hunter postcode stamped across riffs of terracotta and polished leather. Blue/black-fruit aspersions, anise, clove, green olive and pepper grind. NG 14.5% alc.
