Description Barrel Monkeys Shiraz has been a favourite for years now. Its memorable label, a tribute to hard-working cellar hands throughout wine country, is welcome on the tables of fans of dark and succulent McLaren Vale Shiraz. Smooth, luscious rich and velvety, this Gold-medal beauty is lush with spicy blackcurrant fruit and smoky liquorice notes. "Supple and charming on the palate. The ageing is in tune with the fruit and the tannins are silky and sweet" say the Gilbert and Gaillard judges.
