Coriole Lloyd Reserve Shiraz 2020

Deep crimson. Intense blackberry, roasted chestnut aromas with liquorice, herb garden notes. Wonderfully concentrated and polished wine with ample blackberry, dark chocolate flavours, persistent chocolaty firm tannins, superb mid-palate richness and integrated roasted chestnut/ grilled almond/ espresso notes. Finishes chocolaty with a long tannin plume. Keep for a while. A classic in the making. Drink date: 2026-2040. Score – 96. (Andrew Caillard, MW, The Vintage Journal, undated)
