MAC Shiraz 2013, Bird in Hand

£199.95 per bottle

About this wine

Backward and brooding, MAC represents the very finest bottling of Shiraz produced at Bird in Hand. Just six barrels are made each vintage of this intense, bold and masculine wine. Wonderful notes of ripe blackberry, cedar oak and peppery, cool climate spice followed by a stunningly proportioned palate of intense dark berries which lead to a richly textured, savoury mid palate. Powerful but elegant French oak adds length and complexity with a long, silky finish. A rich and elegant cool climate Shiraz that will cellar for 20 years and reward a patient collector.

Very Limited Stock!

    string(832) "Also known as Syrah, Shiraz was the variety which introduced the world to the concentrated and masculine wines of 1990s’ Australia. Here in the Barossa Valley, Langhorne Creek, Clare Valley and McLaren Vale it produces wines of great density and richness. In South Africa there tends to be more structure and freshness with earthy tannins. It is a variety which alters in the bottle very much as a result of the individual winemaker’s philosophy, as well as reflecting the unique terroir of the estates. Great with oak, it offers lavender, kirsch, black cherry and cured meat aromas and flavours. In its native Northern Rhône it is famous for the wines of Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie, whilst in the New World can lay claim to providing Australia with its two most famous wines; Henschke’s Hill of Grace and Penfold’s Grange."
