Product Notes

Coriole Lloyd Reserve Shiraz is a stunning Australian vintage wine from McLaren Vale, noted for its distinctive and rich flavours. Its robust profile reveals beautiful layers of ripe blackberry, dark cherry, and chocolate, intermingling with notes of pepper and exotic spices. A harmony of French oak lends subtle vanilla and toasty undertones. Its smooth, full-bodied palate and fine-grain tannins culminate in a lingering, luxurious finish. Imbued with elegance, complexity and intensity, this Shiraz encapsulates the essence of the region's ideal climate for viticulture. An exquisite and refined indulgence, worthy of special occasions and fine dining companionship. A real gem for any wine connoisseur.

Tasting Notes

A beautifully dense and savoury vintage of Lloyd Shiraz showing mulberry, blackberry, sweet spice and soy. A plush and full entry that continues with unfurling layers of tannin. The tannins are fine and long, giving great persistence and presence. The palate is full bodied but elegant with some dark floral notes, berries and a subtle ferrous note.
