Capel Vale Single Vineyard Whispering Hill Shiraz 2017 Mount Barker 95/100 Sweetly fruited and seductively complex, the wine shows dark fruit richness on the nose with nuances of thyme, cocoa, clove and spicy oak. The palate delivers excellent weight and expansive mouthfeel, wonderfully complemented by plush texture and fine-grained tannins. It’s opulent and mouth filling with a persistent velvety finish. At its best: now to 2032. U$65.00. www.capelvale.com. May 2020.
