The 2020 Moonambel Shiraz is plush and floral, with saturated layers of red berries and sweet fruit, Earl Grey tea, flowers and sweet bone marrow. It’s expansive and beautiful. I challenge anyone who loves Shiraz/Syrah to not love this wine. It has power without being heavy, delicacy without being light, and there’s a softness of fruit and juiciness of structure. It’s ductile, pliable, agile and good. It was bottled with roughly 14% alcohol (as written on the hand-labelled sample) and sealed under screw cap. I feel that the screw-cap closure will mitigate the effects of the warmer season, as this closure is a brilliant preserver of fresh fruit character. 96 points. Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate 2024

Notes
Fruit was fermented in small batches for 10-14 days in open top fermenters. Once approaching dryness, the wine was pressed directly to French oak barriques for 20 month maturation. Careful selection was carried out to find the best barrels to make this Moonambel blend.
In colour, the wine is dark purple-black. It has a deep brooding nose full of violets, blood plum and baking spices. The palate is medium bodied yet powerful and expressive with dark fruits and mocha spice. A mouth-coating tannin structure and smokey oak frame this exceptional Pyrenees Shiraz.
Pyrenees Shiraz matured in all-French oak. It’s by no means a massive wine but it feels voluminous thanks to the spread of flavour and the way it expands through the palate. This is a very good wine. Satsuma plum, soy, sweet spice and jellied cherry notes blend with star anise, cedar and woodsmoke. It’s lively, exotic, generous and sophisticated; it’s many things. 95 points.
