Dalwhinnie Moonambel Shiraz
The palate is rich, dark‑fruited, and deeply structured, opening with blackberry, mulberry, and dark plum. The fruit feels concentrated and plush, shaped by the low‑yielding Moonambel vineyards and the region’s warm days and cool nights. A mid‑palate of redcurrant, cocoa, and warm spice adds aromatic lift, while the tannins are plentiful, fine, and firmly woven, giving the wine a powerful yet polished frame. A subtle thread of slatey earth and graphite brings a mineral edge that keeps the richness in check. As it opens, hints of violet, black pepper, and dried herb emerge, adding complexity without heaviness. The finish is long, dark, and lingering, tapering with notes of plum skin, spice, and a faint mineral echo. Overall, it’s a deep, structured, beautifully concentrated Pyrenees Shiraz — powerful yet refined, and unmistakably Dalwhinnie.
