Patritti JPB Shiraz 2021

"SUMPTUOUS, MOUTH-STAINING EXPERIENCE FOR THOSE SEEKING A RED OF POWER AND PRESENCE." - Halliday

 

"Hello, old school McLaren Vale opulence. This Patritti red is a homage wine to the original John Patritti Broughton and is a ‘best barrels’ selection from the Patritti vineyard in Blewitt Springs. This is a luscious, chocolate-drenched, coffeed purple wine. Oak is a big player – it’s a choc mocha+++. But, there’s a polished dark fruit purple ness too. Lots of oomph makes this thick purple wine admirable for its unabashed style." - OZ Wine Review

 

"It's a very rich, ripe and smooth red wine, bold in its carriage of stewed plum, dark chocolate, sweet tobacco, cassis, currant and fig sweet/savoury elements and the lavish dusting of clove, cedar and pencil shaving woodiness that comes with it all. The palate is potent, very supple and incredibly inky, immensely concentrated and yet wrapped in only a whisper of gently puckering, pumice stone–like tannin." Mike Bennie

 

"Our flagship wine name after our founder Giovanni (John) Patritti. Made from selected rows of Shiraz grapes from our Blewitt Springs vineyard in the Mclaren Vale wine region. The wine displays flavours of plum, blue fruits and raspberry with complex spice and toasty oak. Drink now or cellar for decades to come.

The fruit for this wine is sourced from selected rows in the family’s own Blewitt Springs vineyard in the McLaren Vale region. Planted in 1960, the vineyard’s free draining sandy soil, mild to warm climate and high elevation create a site perfectly suited to growing premium low yielding Shiraz grapevines.

Vintage 2021 will go down as not only Australia’s largest vintage to date but also possibly one of the best from a quality perspective." - Patritti
