Flowstone Moonmilk Shiraz Grenache Viognier 2023
$28, 14.0% alcohol, screwcap, Margaret River.

This is a medium-weight wine offering a good amount of berried fruit flesh, polished texture, lively aromatics and just-enough chewy tannin through the finish to give it shape, and to help it feel satisfying. Basically this is just good buying and drinking, in the mid-weight, well-crafted mould, with redcurrant and peppercorn characters as the main drivers. 91 points.
