D’Arenberg 2012 The Footbolt Shiraz (McLaren Vale)

Country: Australia / The Footbolt
Variety: Shiraz South Australia
Winery: D’Arenberg / McLaren Vale

This is made in an earthy-savory style, offering hints of roasted meat, black olives and espresso. It’s also firmly constructed, with firm tannins that suggest a couple of years of cellar time would do it some good. Drink 2018 through 2025.
