From a 1.8-hectare block particularly rich in ironstone, Yangarra's 2015 Ironheart Shiraz features aromas of crushed stones, pencil shavings, sandalwood and blueberries. It's medium to full-bodied, with deep, concentrated flavors, ample fine-grained tannins and a tremendously long finish. Like the other Yangarra wines, there's a potent line of acidity that gives shape and focus, acting like a spine from which the other elements are suspended.

Bold and expressive, opening with plump wild blackberry, black licorice and blueberry flavors, giving way to sage, caramel and chai tea notes. Balances generosity with restraint from the detailed, velvety tannins, which never get in the way, especially on the long finish. Drink now through 2035. 424 cases made, 200 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / McLaren Vale Select to Add
