2020 Coriole Lloyd Reserve Shiraz
- From our Marketplace - Leaves warehouse in 6 days
Old-vine sourcing. Made to a traditional taste, with an admirable track record of ageability. Unabashedly full bodied. Black fruit allusions, fennel seed, menthol, smoked salumi and astringent oak tannins that feel almost green at this nascent stage. Yet as the wine opens, the seeping fruit reveals itself to the point of a plush, boysenberry pie sweetness. Far from my cup of tea, yet a very good wine for the style. Read more

Blackberries, tar and walnuts with flowers on the nose. Medium to full body, firm and creamy tannins and a juicy finish. Creamy tannins. Focused, if slightly austere. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Tasting Notes
A beautifully dense and concentrated vintage of Lloyd Shiraz showing mulberry, blackberry, sweet spice and soy. A plush and full entry that continues with unfurling layers of tannin. The tannins are full and long giving great persistence and presence. The palate is full bodied but elegant with dark floral notes, berries, fresh tobacco and a subtle ferrous note.
