The fruit used to produce Mitolo Savitar Shiraz was sourced from bountiful vineyards in southern McLaren Vale. The grapes underwent fermentation on their skins for a fortnight, which was followed by pressing. The resulting dry red wine displays a deep garnet red colour. The perfumed bouquet exudes attractive aromas of blackberry bramble, tar and fresh mint, coupled with floral hints and powerful vanillin oak characters. These fragrances effortlessly make way for a lush and intense palate, brimming with blackcurrant, plum and liquorice flavours. Integrated with silky and juicy tannins, the drink culminates in a fine and grainy finish. Cellar this wine for 8 to 12 years, for the flavours to evolve. Serve it on a special occasion with lasagna or Vincisgrassi.

A distinct purity of dark brooding fruit on the nose. Cut plums and blackcurrant with hints of spice and earthiness. The impeccably balanced palate, fine-grained tannins and flashes of white pepper.
