Maxwell 2019 Eight Bells

Shiraz (McLaren Vale)

Smelling of Worcestershire spice, grilled red meat and beef jerky, this is an appealing, aroma-dense wine. The palate is rich and creamy with oodles of viscosity. Acidity is relaxed and integrated while the tannins are rounded and soothing. The finish has good, fruit-driven length, with red plum and cherry popping to the fore along with cinnamon and cardamom. Earthy, mature elements show on the nose. The wine is ready to drink now through 2024.
