Mattinson review of Provenance Geelong Shiraz 2023.

Provenance Geelong Shiraz 2023
$37, 13.8% alcohol, screwcap, Geelong.

If cool climate shiraz is your thing, then you will love this wine. It’s just so beautifully flavoured, and pitched. It tastes of black pepper, strings of herbs, ripe red/black cherries and roasted nuts, with sweet spice and cedarwood as boosters. But it’s the whole of it, the cohesion, the silken mouthfeel and the length of the finish that really underlines this wine’s quality. In short, it’s an excellent wine. And more. 95 points.
