Murdoch Hill, Adelaide Hills (South Australia) 2021

Sep 20, 2023

By Miranda Franco

 This 2021 red blend from Murdoch Hill is a mix of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 14% Sangiovese, and 11% Shiraz from the Oakbank and Lenswood vineyards in the Adelaide Hills, respectively.  It offers an alluring melding of red currant, red cherry, fresh raspberry, strawberry, plum, and black pepper.  It perfectly toes the line between rustic and polished and is underlain with fine-grained tannins and a zip of refreshing acidity.
