About this product
Oliver's Taranga have a long and distinguished history in the McLaren Vale and are custodians of some of the premier vineyard land in the region. Corrina Wright is now the winemaking brain behind this progressive winery and her Shiraz is a modern masterstroke. Smoke and bacon on the nose with sweet and savoury tones. Soft fruit flavours luscious mouth feel and great length to this wine. Delicious.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Deep, dark and impressive. Intense, warm-hearted notes of blackberry, asphalt, salt-bush and dried, woody clove. Intensity of fruit is the main game; oak has almost been entirely consumed. And yet rusty, earthen tannin help gives the wine both a minerally and traditional edge.
