Reviews and Ratings

Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

A fruit driven and rather refreshing Shiraz. The co-fermentation with 5% Viognier is giving it a bit of a lift. With generous red plum on the palate, it is well balanced and elegant leaning toward the old world style. Would be wonderful with rack of lamb. Tasted Nov 22, 2019 www.thewineloverskitchen.com
Linda Mertes WSET 2 rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

A Shiraz from Mornington Peninsula, just south of Melbourne that is blended with 5% Viognier, adding texture and vitality to the wine's aging potential. A spicy and licorice flavoured palate with a medium finish. This wine can be held for another 6-8 years. It would go well the barbequed meats in a sweet, thick marinade.
From the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria wine region, Paringa Peninsula Shiraz 2016 is a classic with ripe dark cherry compote, blackberry, savoury spice, anise, toasty oak and pepper spice flavours on the palate. Tannins are fine. Soo good now but can easily cellar for 15 or more years. - Community Wine Reviews
