Hugh Hamilton Black Ops Shiraz Saperavi 2020, Mclaren Vale, South Australia, Australia: From the McLaren Vale wine region in South Australia, Black Ops 2020 is a dry, full-bodied red wine blend of Cabernet Sauvignon with 30% Saperavi. Savoury, nuanced and well put together, the wine is a deep, dark purple in the glass (almost black and hence the name)and just as rich, deep and vibrant on the palate. An unusual combination that makes for a very interesting wine. Perfumed with exotic spices, earthy herbs, black plum, gamey flavours (in a good way) with judicious use of toasted oak and so the wine is not overpowering. Tannins are structured. A great marriage of the two grapes. Drink or hold. Shiraz Saperavi food pairings: lamb ragu, bison burgers, slow-braised beef brisket. Drink: 2023 - 2030 570796 14.9% XD 750 mL $37.95 Score: 93/100.
