The 2019 Avenue to Gold Shiraz is bright and fresh, with a framework of spicy tannins that holds everything in check and balance. The fruit is vibrant and pure initially, but it does tend to finish up shorter than I expected. The tannins through the finish are the highlight for me—once the fruit has receded, they are chalky and a bit chewy. Drink it while the fruit is fresh.

AGEING POTENTIAL

MATURATION
Avenue to Gold possesses a very lifted aromatic and excellent ripe fruit that create a lasting mouth feel.

The Avenue to Gold 2019 displays a vibrant crimson colour. Aromas of Fresh blackberry and juniper which evolve to pipe tobacco, dried sage and rosemary. The wine enters the palate with power and presence carrying liquored blackberry and coal dust flavour at first impression. It turns savoury slowly delivering black peppercorns and umami notes which provide a lovely mouth watering finish.

This wine has a very complex finish which touches on both fruit and savoury details. Avenue to Gold’s fine tannins and acidity will bring pleasure in its youth and allow long cellaring.
