Domaine Michel Mallard, Corton Renardes other_regions_australia The 2015 Grenache Shiraz Mataro

The 2015 Grenache Shiraz Mataro is spicy and leaning into its meatiness and umami peppercorns

pliant and energetic on the palate

The 2022 vintage was warm and low yielding—very low yielding in the context of Chardonnay

Really a beautiful wine with elegance

Domaine Michel Mallard, Corton Renardes other_regions_australia The 2015 Grenache Shiraz Mataro(from a . 75 ha parcel). A slightly more deeply pitched and earthier nose reflects plenty of floral influence along with wood and menthol hints. The is a beguiling texture to the tension filed, detailed and more mineral driven broad shouldered flavors that also conclude in a firm, serious, austere and moderately rustic finale. This is very Corton in character and a wine thats going to need extended keeping before it will be ready for prime time.
