2022 Chien Violet Organic Shiraz

Rusty Mutt | Vintage: 2022

Type: red

Description:
THE NAME “I named my wine range ‘Rusty Mutt‘ because I was born in the Year of the Metal Dog in Chinese astrology. I then ‘Australianised’ Metal Dog to Rusty Mutt.” “I am thrilled to introduce my first fully organic Rusty Mutt wine! The grapes come from a certified organic vineyard called ‘Wit’s End’ in McLaren Vale. This vineyard is renowned for its bright red fruits and violet floral notes, which inspired the name ‘Chien Violet‘, meaning ‘Violet Dog’ in French.” – Scott Heidrich (Owner / Winemaker) WINES / REVIEWS GOLD MEDAL – 2023 Australian And New Zealand Boutique Wine Show Judges Comments: “Deep Ruby – dark core. Forest fruits (blackcurrants) with meaty and earthy elements. Good tannin structure and length. Good ripeness, energy and succulence. Sweet fruited and plush with good energy. Dark robust plum, mulberry pie, clove and allspice, and dense.” 94 points – Sam Kim (Wine Orbit) “Splendidly ripe and fragrant, showing blackberry, cedary oak, cake spice and rich floral aromas, it’s succulent and generously weighted in the mouth with juicy fruit flavours backed by plush texture and grainy tannins, finishing wonderfully long and sturdy. Bold and flavoursome.”
