D'Arenberg The Footbolt Shiraz 2021 Review
This McLaren Vale Shiraz is named after founder Joseph Osborn’s prized horse. He made the difficult decision to sell his full stable to purchase the d'Arenberg property in 1912 and this is an ode to that moment in time. The wine offers bright wild berry fruit with a hint of pepper and cola on the nose. The palate is soft and rich with a slight tannic edge on the finish.
