Dalwhinnie Moonambel Shiraz 2006
Dalwhinnie, located near the small village of Moonambel in the heart of the Pyrenees region of western Victoria, is one of Victoria's oldest family-run vineyards. Dalwhinnie has been growing grapes for nearly 50 years and the 16-hectare vineyard is now fully mature. At 595 metres above sea level, Dalwhinnie is the highest and most remote of the Pyrenees district vineyards. The vineyard is located in a naturally undulating trough which falls away from the hills, forming an amphitheatre nestled into the ranges.
"Very dark cherry-red. Impressive. A lovely perfume highlighting juniper and rhubarb with a gentle whiff of freshly picked raspberries. Coffee and mocha also present. The palate is just superb. Sweet rich concentrated shiraz juice coats the mouth followed by seriously long fine dry tannins and a searing sherbet acidity to keep everything in check.
