2018 Barr-Eden Estate Avenue to Gold Mengler’s Hill Shiraz, Eden Valley
This slice of the original Polhner family property was sold to the much-loved and missed Bob McLean in 1997 and today, Michael Twelftree and Tim Hower are the custodians of this special part of the Eden Valley. Wonderfully high-toned and detailed aromatics with tight dark and red plum and cherry fruit encased in spice and stone. There’s a sense of space to the palate; fine yet plush, powdery tannins and bright highcountry acidity pulsing through the wine, finishing savoury and pure. DB 13.8% alc.
