[SOLD-OUT] Shadowfax Straws Lane Pinot Noir 2019

96 POINTS - WINE FRONT! 

 

"This is a new wine for Shadowfax. Close planted in the 80s, while wearing tight T-shirts and a pair of Scoops, sitting 800m up on the north side of Mount Macedon. A moderate 20% new oak employed. This trio of 2019 Shadowfax are hitting new heights (pun intended).

What a delight. The whole shootin’ match. The dark cherry flavour. The sliding graphite tannin. The cool ‘mineral’ acidity. The length. It’s floral, seasoned with spice and dried herb, offers bass and treble, clean lines, and makes you want to drink it with a feverish haste, which is a rare admission for this little piggy. It’s a beauty." - Gary Walsh, Wine Front

 

"Cherry fruits and floral notes fill the palate. There are complexities galore all sitting on a precise palate of lacy fine tannins with lovely acid core. The palate is long and persistent with evolving complexities as time goes by in the glass. A fine example of cool climate, single vineyard, high altitude Macedon Ranges Pinot Noir." - Shadowfax
