Lienert Estate Mataro 2021, Barossa Valley

Dark, savoury and beautifully brooding, the nose reveals blackberry, plum and black cherry layered with dried herbs, spice, earth and subtle smoked meat complexity.

Dense dark fruit flows through the entry before savoury spice and firm tannins tighten the wine into a muscular, earthy frame. Notes of blackberry, liquorice and pepper unfold through the mid-palate with excellent persistence, while fresh mineral acidity keeps the wine focused. The finish is long, savoury and deeply flavoured with lingering spice and earthy complexity.
