Paritua Stone Paddock 'Scarlet' 2021
Congratulations Paritua on making a very smart red blend at an even smarter price!!
"This blended red is a prime example of the style produced from the gravel soils of the Paritua vineyard. The wine has scented Black Doris plum and blackberry with hints of baking spice, cedar. The palate shows dark fruits dominated by plum and blackberry with a full mid palate supported by firm, ripe tannins with a sumptuous finish. The oak influence is subtle and provides spicy notes and good structure." Winery notes (2021 Vintage)
"Great colour and fruit intensity with scents of roasted plums, dark chocolate, blackberry and black currant. There’s a mix of wood scents from dark spices to smoke plus a stony earthy quality. Dry, youthful and textured wine touches the palate framed by tannins and acidity deliver a wine of freshness, youthfulness and length. Well made with best drinking from day of purchase through 2032+." Rated Excellent 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2024 (2021 Vintage)
