Aramis White Label Shiraz 2022

Mattinson review of Aramis Vineyards White Label Shiraz 2022.

Aramis White Label Shiraz 2022
$22, 14.5% alcohol, screwcap, McLaren Vale.

Sweet fruit flavours, plum and blackberry-accented, rush through the palate in volume, in the process ushering peppercorn and general sweet spice notes along for the ride. This is a warm, well-flavoured, fruit-driven shiraz for the most part, but it also has just enough earthen-woody spice notes to give the flavours a bit of spread. Given all that, the asking price makes it a bit of a steal, especially if you’re in the market for a bigger style of red. 91 points.

When you pick up a wine book and see thousands of top-scoring wines, it’s hard to know which wine to choose. Mattinson guides you through this maze, giving you an honest view of the best Australian wines, the best wine stories, the best wine producers, the best value wines and simply, the best tasting wines. Importantly, Mattinson will tell you about the top-rated wines and also about the underrated wines. In short, Mattinson knows Australian wines inside and out.

Mattinson has been a photo-journalist since 1987. For the past 25 years he’s been a voice that you can trust when you’re looking for the best wines. He’s the only Australian to have won the Australian Wine Communicator of the Year Award more than once. He’s a past winner of a Louis Roederer International Wine Media Award, and is the author of the award-winning book The Wine Hunter. He’s not afraid to put a score beside a wine. But what he’d rather do, is tell you the wine’s story.
