The Pirathon Gold Shiraz was introduced to Pirathon's range in 2016 as a premium reserve wine.
The best grape lots were carefully selected from the 2016 intake and combined with 100% French Oak barrels with no compromise on quality.
The resulting wine provides a palate of bright fruits balanced with chalky tannins which dominate in this classy, highly integrated, harmonious Barossa Shiraz.
The Pirathon Gold Shiraz is for those who want only the very best and cannot settle for anything else. Pirathon Gold provides the prestige best of the pick grapes, carefully handled and fermented in the best quality barrels with a taste and appearance that will astound you and your guests.
Tasting Notes
Palate
Rich and full-bodied. Very generous, powerful. Totally mouth-coating. Bright fruit flavours, licorice. Firm chalky tannins giving longevity as well as nice grip to counter-balance sleek fruits, but importantly polished. Harmonious acid. Very classy, savoury oak, highly integrated. A long lingering finish.
Appearance
Dark magenta-black in colour
Aroma
Very intense aromatics. Dark black fruits, plus dried fig. Sweet spice, almost incense-like. Classy cedary oak.
