Scarpantoni 2010 Block 3 Shiraz McLaren Vale

69-scarpantoni-block-3-shiraz Photo Steve DavisWeek 3 of Adelaide Hills whites vs McLaren Vale reds at The Arkaba Hotel brought us another superb drop, the 2010 Scarpantoni Estate Block 3 Shiraz in McLaren Vale of course.

As you’ll hear in episode 69, this wine is silken.

Both boys were struck by its enticing aroma but then Steve got swirls of Ribena on his palate followed by an aftermath of licorice.

Colin concurred and both noted hints of mint but that was after reading the back label and then discerning it (do labels plant suggestions in our minds?).

You can hear us taste this wine here.

Win a bottle of this wine

The Arkaba Hotel has partnered with us so that it can let our fellow wine lovers know you can safely order wine by the glass through their Enomatic System. So, instead of getting a tired glass of wine from a bottle that was opened days ago, which is a dreadful experience for serious wine drinkers, at the Arkaba they can guarantee freshness just like the winemaker intended.

To be in the draw to win a bottle of this Shiraz, you only have TWO things to do:

1. Make sure you’re on our In Crowd mailing list. This little email gets sent every Friday morning with details about the week’s show. You can sign up here and once you’ve signed up you’ll be qualified to play any of our competitions for life.

2. Mention the term Shiraz on our Facebook Page, or in a tweet to @boringadelaide, or just email us using that term to podcast@theadelaideshow.com.au. Pick whichever one works best for you but do it BEFORE 11.59pm, Sunday, December 21, 2014, South Australian time of course, and on Monday we will email the winner with details of how they can collect their wine from The Arkaba.
