Tasting Notes
Paxton’s vineyards comprise of 6 Biodynamic properties. MV ‘McLaren Vale’ or 'Multiple Vineyard' Shiraz is a blend of 100% Shiraz from four of the Paxton vineyards, and has been developed to highlight optimum fruit flavours.
This wine gives the best of both worlds: a fantastic wine when young, but careful cellaring for 5-10 years will reward you very nicely.
The MV displays the hallmarks of classic McLaren Vale Shiraz – elegance, balance and pleasure in a bottle.
