Hailing from the rich soils of Barossa, the 2020 Lienert Sieben Klon Shiraz is a testament to the region’s ability to produce stunning Shiraz. The 95-point score is well-deserved, as this wine exhibits a harmonious balance of ripe blackberry, subtle spice, and a hint of toasted oak. Its robust palate is delightfully complex, with velvety tannins that linger on the finish. This Shiraz is an excellent companion to a hearty beef stew or a cozy fireside chat. While its retail price suggests a premium wine, it delivers well beyond its peers in quality and depth of flavors, making it a truly great value find.
