Moorilla Muse Syrah 17

From the deep, red-purple colour onward, this is an alluring, elegant beast. The bouquet is classic—peppery, sweet berries, ample spice—and the palate is luxurious, with plenty of soft tannin and a long, rewarding carry. A subtle meatiness and nuanced, blackcurrant-on-the-vine character round out this astoundingly well-crafted wine. ‘A very smart wine, already drinking well … Tasmanian shiraz is seldom this full-throated.’ —Huon Hooke (95 points)
