Winery: Gemtree Region: McLaren Vale Variety: Shiraz (95%) Viognier (5%)   Your Wine Guy says:   The nose shows red currants, blueberries, plums, and spice. A mass of violets and red berry fruits then explode onto the palate. The flavours build up through the mid palate where a remarkably well balanced cut of acidity adds structure to the fleshy flavours of red fruits, vanilla and integrated spicy oak. The finish is long with fine tannins and looks like it could cellar comfortably for up to 10 years, but you certainly don’t have to wait. 93 Points YWG Drink to 2018+   Critics say: Australian wine authority and critic, James Halliday (in Halliday’s Wine Companion), has awarded Gemtree a 5 Star rating, an accolade afforded to only 9% of Australia’s wineries. Halliday describes the meaning of his 5 Star rating as an:  “Outstanding winery capable of producing wines are very high-quality, and did so this year. Also will usually have at least two wines rated at 94 points or above.”   The winemaker says: Colour: Deep red, purple/black hues. Nose: Violets, plums, raspberry conserve with hints of red spices, almonds (oak) and cinnamon. Palate: Just like a great dive the entry is amazing. The palate is rich and plush with a range of flavours, mulberries, boysenberries and chocolate. The wine exhibits layers of concentration yet remains focused by the balanced acidity and soft tannins - very harmonious. - Gemtree Wines   Gemtree Bloodstone McLaren Vale Shiraz Viognier There are no products to display Ok
