O'Leary Walker 'Claire' Reserve Shiraz 2016

In their words - Deep dark red with intense purple hues. Concentrated black fruits with spice, chocolate and cedar aromas. A powerful Clare Valley Shiraz. Black olive and dark juicy fruits with long, fine grain tannins.

Critics thoughts -  Nothing is spared from fruit sourcing to winemaking. The fruit comes from a Polish Hill River vineyard that is more than 100 years old, and it eventually finds its way into 100 per cent new French oak for 12 months. It’s pretty obvious such a concentration of fruit can handle the oak and the end result is a wine revealing great poise and balance. Massive concentration with the chalky tannin, ironstone character supporting it through a very long finish. There is real cellaring potential here.  97 Points The West Australian
