Paxton AAA Shiraz Grenache 2011

McLaren Vale, South Australia   |    750ml   |    14%
Paxton of McLaren Vale is regarded as one of Australia's leading biodynamic wine producers. All Paxton vineyards are managed without the use of synthetic fertilisers or pesticides in order to promote healthy, living soils. 'AAA' is a sensational blend of Shiraz and Grenache, packed with flavours of soft juicy cherries, chocolate and a savoury texture that makes it a real crowd pleaser.

Reviews of the 2010 Paxton AAA Shiraz Grenache included below;

"95 Points. Bright crimson-purple; this is where modern McLaren Vale should be, gloriously fresh and inviting, with controlled alcohol and subtle oak. The varieties are so seamlessly joined all you register is a cascade of red berry fruits and fine-grained tannins. Outstanding value. To: 2020. Price: $23"- James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2013 Edition.

"This is a juicy red with all the savoury spice and grainy tannins of grenache complementing the fleshiness of the shiraz - a ripper match to pea and ham soup. It has a core of bright fruit, fresh acidity and ripe tannins but to tease out the mocha and more savoury characters, it needs air to open up. Medium-bodied with a hint of cedary oak, it's a delicious, easy-drinking red from Paxton, a McLaren Vale producer caring for its land and wine through biodynamic practices. Oh, and at this bargain price, it's a really satisfying drink." - Jane Faulkner, The Age, July 2012.

AAA is a vibrant blend of approximately 61% Shiraz and 39% Grenache from some special little pockets amongst our vineyards. The Shiraz was selected from the ‘Gateway' and ‘Jones Block’ vineyards, renowned for producing some of the best fruit in the region. These select parcels were blended with complimentary Grenache to create a wine that is engaging to a wide range of drinkers. Our blend is fun, appealing and, unlike some members of Paxton, not over the top.- Paxton Wines.
