May 27, 2016 - {screwcap, 15%} Deep ruby purple. Youthful chocolate and blackberry aromas and flavours, very much in typical McLaren Vale style. It's a big mouthful of full-bodied wine but seems to hang together well enough, despite the alcohol. Good balance, rich and ripe. Medium-length finish. The full-throttle style is usually better in the short term in my experience.
