Pauletts Shiraz 2006
A typically rich, dark and old-fashioned Clare shiraz whose dark, meaty bouquet of currants, prunes and slightly raw, mocha-like oak reveals undertones of iodide and varnish, mint and eucalypt. Rich, smooth and sumptuous, it’s dark and raisined, with a pleasing length of fruit underpinned by firm, pliant tannins and finishing with meaty, savoury qualities. It’s meaty and chocolatey, rather unpolished and overcooked, but full of character and flavour.

Pauletts
A small maker of a typically regional selection of Clare Valley table wines, Pauletts is reinventing itself from a quality perspective. Its trio of finely crafted, elegant rieslings represent the real strength of the brand, while the rich and deeply flavoured Andreas Shiraz is typically firm and cellarworthy. The reserve level Antonina Riesling has now hit a very high level of quality for two consecutive seasons, elevating Pauletts into the region's elite with this signature white variety.
