MITCHELTON PRINT SHIRAZ 2018

Mitchelton Print Shiraz is the flagship Shiraz of Mitchelton, displaying a deep magenta or ruby color with purple hues. The aroma is complex and layered—showing ripe blackberry, blueberry, dark plum, cassis, floral lift, and subtle vanillin from French oak. The palate is full-bodied yet refined, with rich fruit: blackberry, mulberry, dark plum, and hints of Asian five spice. Plush, powdery tannins and focused minerality provide structure and balance, leading to a long, persistent finish. Nuances of smokey charcuterie, chocolate, and menthol add further intrigue. This is a wine crafted for both immediate impact and long-term cellaring.
