The Battle of Bosworth 2019 Shiraz is concentrated but metallic and shows a mineral edge through the finish that transcends graphite and moves to steel shavings. The fruit is purple, plush and almost aromatic, but it doesn't quite have the hutzpah through the finish. It's a frigid style: spicy, compressed, tight.

Fresh herb and dried lavender notes add an aromatic edge to the dense wild blackberry flavors, with firm tannins and a thread of minerality that weaves in and out on a dense, muscular frame. Drink now through 2031. 2,500 cases made, 224 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / McLaren Vale Select to Add
