Oliver’s Taranga Corrina’s Cabernet Shiraz Blend 2004
Sumptuously flavoured but very elegant and fine-grained, this smooth and gentle wine has a smoky, brooding, spicy and initially quite reductive aroma of dark plums and meaty funkiness accurately likened by its maker to pig fat. Velvet-smooth and savoury, it’s long and meaty, exuding finely honed strength and a crackling texture. Delicious!

Oliver's Taranga
Oliver's Taranga crafts high-class McLaren Vale reds from shiraz, grenache, tempranillo and cabernet sauvignon that reflect Corrina Wright's ability to deliver exceptional regional flavour from a patchwork of different vineyard sites without sacrificing an ounce of elegance or longevity. She also imparts delightful earthy and reductive complexity into the savoury, waxy Fiano while retaining charming freshness and focus in the Vermentino. The vineyard's consistency is evident throughout the 2013 red releases.
