Did someone say “give me another glass of that Claret”?

This 2019 Macaw Creek Estate Reserve is winemaker Rod Hopper’s favourite wine ….and after tasting it, it’s easy to see why.

For a seven-year-old wine, it’s remarkably bright, full of life and still bursting with energy. A classic Australian Shiraz Cabernet blend that delivers both power and polish.

It shows a deep ruby colour with subtle garnet edges. The nose is excellent; blackberry, cassis and ripe plum layered with cedar, warm spice and earthy complexity.

The palate is medium to full-bodied with real depth and drive. Dark berry fruit sits beautifully alongside firm, integrated tannins, while the mid-palate unfolds with savoury, developed characters and well-judged oak. It finishes long, smooth and wonderfully rounded with outstanding length.

This is a mature, complex and seriously moreish wine. Bright, energetic and beautifully balanced, exactly what you want from a top Australian Claret!

Vino Masters Score: 96/100
