2009 Clarendon Hills Astralis Shiraz McLaren Vale Australia

(97 Points)  -- (Wine Advocate)

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2009 Astralis presents a very fruity, floral nose with lifted notes of blueberries. The palate is concentrated with a slight prune character and has very crisp acidity. At this stage the phenolics are showing a little chewy before finishing long. Drink it now to 2027+.
