The 2023 Wirra Wirra Church Block Cabernet Shiraz Merlot is a classic McLaren Vale red blend, combining Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Merlot in a smooth, balanced and approachable style. The nose is fragrant and expressive, showing aromas of blackcurrant, plum and red berries, layered with notes of spice, cedar and a touch of chocolate.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with soft, fine tannins and a rounded, supple texture. Juicy dark and red fruit flavours are complemented by subtle oak and savoury nuances, leading to a harmonious, polished and food-friendly finish. The style is versatile and easy-drinking, offering depth without heaviness.
