Shiraz Vignoble unique Coach House Block Two Hands 2022

Tasting Notes

The 2021 Coach House Block Seppeltsfield Road Greenock Shiraz is huge, firm and savory. The fruit speaks of blueberries and licorice, the tannins are earthy and unyielding, and the finish is minty - like spearmint oil spritzed onto roasted black berries. It also has notes of cracked fennel seeds and roast beef crust. It's a lovely wine. (Coming back to this again, at the end of the tasting, this is the most complete, concentrated and balanced wine of the lot. I can't help but think that these wines just need so much treatment: decanting, aeration, etc., for them to come alive. My points have come up from the original score.) 14.3% alcohol, sealed under Diam. Drink date: 2023-2033. (Erin Larkin,robertparker.com,2024)
