2018 Standish 'The Standish' Shiraz 750ml

2018 Standish 'The Standish' Shiraz 750ml

Listed - Barossa Super 100 Classification: James Suckling Top 100 Wines of Australia 2020

From Barossa Valley, Australia

Drinking Window: 2020-2040

Alc: 14.5%

Exceptionally deep and incredibly saturated in colour with an inky black heart and a dark purple black hue. Captivating aromas of liquorice, blackberry and black cherry soar out of the glass trailed by subtle smoky vanillin cedar, fennel, scorched earth, hints of dark chocolate, dried herbs and pepper. Boasting out of this world richness and power with a dense opulent texture somehow this wine manages to not be too heavy or overbearing and retains a sense of refinement. Sumptuous black fruits cascade across the palate is seemingly never ending waves supported by a firm tannin structure that appears velvet like beneath the sheer depth of fruit. Beautifully integrated elements of vanillin cedar, clove, light scorched earth, fennel, pepper and spice are also apparent. Rich and remarkably long finish.

98-100 Points - Joe Czerwinski (RobertParker.com):

"The 2018 The Standish Shiraz (a sample blend from barrel) is a bit stalky (it's about 50% whole cluster), but it's gorgeously perfumed, with hints of herbal tea, raspberries, blackberries and licorice. It just exudes complexity, while also being full-bodied, plush and creamy, with a long, elegant finish. This seamless beauty is a candidate for perfection." - Wine Advocate
