Albacore Anniversary McLaren Vale Shiraz A15A 2022
£27.99
- The McLaren Vale is famed for producing rich, velvety reds with great depth and concentration, and this is a belter.
- Dark and brooding; there's a lovely warm spice and oak. Layered black fruit and perfect tannins for it to age gracefully.
- It’s an obvious one to suggest, but this bottling really does work wonderfully with juicy steaks and even better with a rich blue cheese sauce.

The last edition came in 2012 and it seemed like the right time to produce another one, with 15 years chalked up since we designed, created and launched our first Albacore release. We toyed with giving the bottle a bit of a refresh this time around, but settled on the ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ approach, helped by the fact that we love the simple Japanese-style brush-stroke painting. The team selected a set of their most luscious and expressive Shiraz barrels, all produced from top sites in the McLaren Vale, and the wine itself is big and proud of its provenance. A wine full of complexity and intrigue with so much drinkability - the hallmark of the Albacore range.

"It looks, smells and tastes like really good McLaren Vale Shiraz should: full of dark berry fruit and that signature chocolatey tang. There's no doubt its big and proudly so, but there's also a lightness to the texture with sleek and polished fruit and good cellaring potential." - Steve Grimley, Winemaker.
