Charles Melton The Father In Law Shiraz 2017 (Barossa Valley)
Tasting Notes
Charles Melton The Father In Law Barossa Shiraz 2017 has become a foundation stone wine for us. An almost seamless follow on from the 2016. Obviously a little fresher and perkier than the ’16 at this stage, but it will follow a very similar path.
Showing some red berry perfume and a light dusting of savoury oak that will develop with bottle age.
Rich and soft in the mouth with a structure between medium and full bodied, but with a smooth mid palate and a lick of soft tannins.
Will settle in the short term, but will build richness and complexity the longer it is in the bottle.
