The Opportunist Shiraz 2022 by Thistledown

LANGHORNE CREEK

An aromatic bouquet of ripe fruits, cherries and blackcurrants, with notes of freshly ground coffee, dark chocolate, peppermint, liquorice and subtle pepper. Thick and smooth with good balanced fruit weight.

Upfront and immediately appealing, the perfumed bouquet shows black/blueberry, violet, mixed spice and subtle cocoa notes on the nose. The palate is equally attractive with juicy fruit intensity, wonderfully complemented by plump mouthfeel and silky tannins.

91 points - Wine Pilot (Ray Jordan)
One thing you can guarantee with the wines of Langhorne Creek – they will be so enticing and drinkable. This one is right on the money. Bright and vibrant red fruits with a little mix of cherry and plum. Fine chalky tannins sit comfortably within the fleshy fruit while a little oak adds a lift on the finish. Nice current drinking wine.
