Wirra Wirra Church Block 750mL

$24.99 each

Description

Church Block was the first wine the late Greg Trott produced under the Wirra Wirra label back in 1972. He took the name from one of the original vineyards, which runs next to the small Bethany Church (Est 1854) across the road from Wirra Wirra’s century old ironstone cellars. Over four decades, the Church Block label has become an Australian favourite. Fresh red and dark fruits provide great flesh and depth to a long, even palate. Grainy tannins and cedary oak add structural support and line to the rich fruit.

Tasting Notes

Deep crimson. Classic blackberry, leaf and briar of Cabernet Sauvignon are closely pursued by opulent plums and wild herbs of Shiraz and Merlot. Five spice, dark chocolate and ripe mixed berries underpin the varietal cascade. Hallmarks of a timeless Church Block. A wealth of cassis, plums and black cherries are tethered to the palate with smartly ripened tannin. Dense, plush and balanced with a lovely core of ripe fruit, this wine is effortless in its harmony and energy.
