Tasting Notes

The Scarlet Runner Shiraz has a nose of black fruits and black fruit pastille (jubes). It has a full middle-weight palate with lots of black fruit with a hint of liquorice and anise. It is all supported by fine supple tannins. It's balanced and has lovely fruit on both the nose and palate.

Technical Info

Brand:Spring Seed

Closure:Screwcap

Organic Certification:ACO - 5106

Country of Origin:Australia

Serving Temperature:18-20C°C

Drink By:2027

Wine Ageing:French and American oak (10% new)

Winemaking Style:Traditional

Harvest:Good spring rains but lower summer rainfall than we usually receive in McLaren Vale. As a result of this dry growing period, disease pressure was low (no mildews!) although there were a couple of heat spikes in late January and some hot days in February which resulted in reduced crops compared to 2018 (down by up to 30% depending on variety).

Winemaking:Fermented in a mixture of open and small tanks. Mainly older oak was used to mature the wine, which is a mix of both French and a small amount of American oak.

Food Pairing:Grilled Steak, Lamb Chops, BBQ Ribs, Spaghetti Bolognese, Pepper-Crusted Tuna Steak, Beef Stew, Mushroom Risotto, Spicy Sausage and Peppers, Barbecued Chicken, Blue Cheese Burger
