A great value Shiraz from one of Victoria's most consistent wineries. Based out of Nagambie, Mitchelton Shiraz has great pedigree with their 'Print' label regularly receiving fantastic reviews.
At a fraction of the price, the Bend is a great 'drink now' proposition. In the glass this is a vibrant purple from the first splash. The nose moves from rich ripe plum and berry fruit through to smooth dark chocolate notes and sultry spice undertones. Oak maturation has imparted notes of vanilla and supple tannin structure, which carry hearty fruit flavour to a harmonious finish.
From the Winery
Water doesn’t flow naturally in a straight line. It meanders and sways following the topography of the land. Mitchelton resides on one such curve. A place affectionately dubbed:
The Bend. An idyllic spot where people congregate to eat, drink and play. Where rushing is a foreign concept, and the day takes you where it will. Whether on our ground or your own, there’s always a time and a place for The Bend.
