Coriole Willunga 1920 Shiraz 6pk 2018

The Lloyd family founded Coriole in 1967, and are considered pioneers in the McLaren Vale region, and visionaries in the planting of Italian and French varieties. Long before it was fashionable, Mark Lloyd developed vineyards of Sangiovese, Picpoul, Chenin Blanc, Nero d’Avola, and others, plus of course, Shiraz. They are considered one of the leading lights of the region.
Coriole Willunga 1920 Shiraz 2018
“Deep and dark purple colour in the glass. Cherry Ripe aromatics
of dark chocolate and ripe berry fruit. Oak is toasty. Graphite and
licorice add earthy charm. Gently round when sipped, an initial
burst of mulberry fruit channels quickly into lovely, lifted red
cherry acidity. Modern and lively. Loads of length. Kudos”

Coriole Willunga 1920 Shiraz 2018
“An old site established in 1920 services the name. This is a
smooth ride. Dense. Mocha, black olive, mulberry, blueberry and
spice, with a spool of pepper-doused acidity towing the rear long
and effortless. The cedary oak glosses the fabric, rather than
ripping it apart. Exceptional warm climate shiraz.”

Coriole Willunga 1920 Shiraz 2018
“Deep, dark and perfumed. Dark chocolate, damp earth, lavender
and spice, ripe blackberry and raspberry, black olive rolled in
dried herbs. It’s full-bodied, rippling with earthy and ferrous
tannin, saline and fragrant, has grip and depth of flavour, and rolls
out very long, with a distinct toasted hazelnut flavour as it goes.
Powerful and distinctive.”
