2017 Dalwhinnie Moonambel Shiraz Museum Release

The 2017 Moonambel Shiraz is eminently balanced and refined on the nose, with blood, minerals and flowers in equal measure. This is super composed, balanced and, as far as wine drinking pleasure goes, a triumph. There are notes of cardamom pod, sandalwood, scraped vanilla pod, pomegranate molasses, crushed rocks and kicked earth, and the layers of flavor are defined by very fine, ductile, tannic texture and support. Super. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. 96 points. Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate Feb 2024
