The Perfect Storm Thunder Shiraz 2020, McLaren Vale, South Australia
Deep garnet-crimson, the nose bursts with ripe blackberry and plum compote, layered with dark chocolate, espresso roast, and American oak spice.
On the palate it delivers exactly what McLaren Vale Shiraz does best: plush, commanding fruit power wrapped in velvety tannins and a core of sweet spice and mocha. The texture is smooth and focused, with black fruit surging across a balanced backbone of fine-grained tannins and refreshing acidity. The finish is long, savoury, and moreish, carrying dark chocolate and roasted coffee notes right through.
Vino Masters Score: 95/100
★★★★★ Generous, satisfying, and full of regional soul .
