Best's Thomson Family Shiraz 2019

JAMES HALLIDAY 96 POINTS!

"Come from the original 1868 plantings, which is quite something. Black and blue fruit, hazelnut, seaweed, a little nougat and spice. It’s blue fruited, quite dense and firm, but also a little salty, with a fine chew to tannin, savoury and nutty, with old vine intensity and good carry on the finish. Good wine. Distinctive. Drink 2024- 2033+." - James Suckling

 

"An extremely sophisticated and concentrated shiraz that’s so precise and focused on the beautifully balanced, medium-bodied palate. The interplay of fine tannins and lively acidity is really fascinating. Very clean and long finish. From the Concongella Vineyard. Drink now or hold." - James Suckling

 

"Very closed to begin, but opens in time to reveal a tapestry of deeply scented aromas including plum skins, exotic spices, concentrated dark fruits, rose petals and grilled nuts. Very rich although only medium bodied. It is broody then expansive, intense but round then focused to a first-class line and length." - Best's
