MetalaBlack Label Original Plantings Shiraz 2005
About this product
The Metala name is a historic one in Australian wine circles. Winning the very first Jimmy Watson Trophy in 1962, Metala has since gone on to become a favourite of many full-bodied Shiraz lovers. The Black Label Original Plantings is made in a traditional 'old school' style with rich fruit and firm back bone of quality oak. With fruit from vineyards dating back to 1894, the Metala Black Label has the ability to age gracefully for many years.

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.

Lots of ripe plums and blackberries, a touch of mint and balanced oak with those famous soft Langhorne Creek tannins. Starting to come into its own.
