Wirra Wirra Catapult Shiraz 2020

You are getting a lot of mighty fine wine for this price. It has all the McLaren Vale DNA of rich plush flavours, but the inclusion of some cooler site fruit adds a degree of aromatic prettiness on the nose. Plush, plummy dark chocolate fruit with a trace of cocoa for good measure. The oak is well managed, with a combo of largely French and about 30% American, which brings a sweetness and succulence into play. Dry slightly dusty finish is a perfect complement. Drink: 2022-2030. Score – 92. (Ray Jordan, winepilot.com, May 2022)
