Ok, there's a fair bit to unpack here, let's start with the multi-regional elephant in the room. Well, the layers and layers of complexity present in this wine is a perfect example of why these blends exist. 2014 was a cool vintage in the Clare, this portion of the fruit provides tremendous natural acid, great spice and that old school Australian tannin structure, not to mention beautiful fruit purity that you'd expect from high-end Clare shiraz. 2014 in McLaren Vale, however, was a very warm year, this portion of fruit brings the brawn. Robust, ripe fruit, dark chocolate, and, what can only be described as, an enormous mouthfeel. 10 years in the cellar has brought the good stuff; leather, cigar box, and a loooooong oaky finish. Delightful.
