A big and rich wine but it shows freshness and energy underneath the juicy and rather thick fruit with plush tannins. Some chewiness, too. Needs two or three years to soften. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

The 2021 John Duval Wines Entity Shiraz is a remarkable wine that showcases the best of Australian winemaking. With its deep red color and enticing aromas, this wine is a true delight for the senses.

Sourced from old vineyards in the renowned Barossa Valley and Eden Valley regions of South Australia, this Shiraz is a testament to the exceptional quality of the fruit. The vineyards of Krondorf, Tanunda, Marananga, Ebenezer, and Moppa contribute to the vibrant and pure heart of this wine, offering deep black plum, black cherry, and boysenberry fruits. These flavors are complemented by plentiful exotic spice, violets, licorice, and wafts of light cedar and vanillin oak.

On the palate, the 2021 Entity Shiraz displays a perfect balance between richness and freshness. The juicy and rather thick fruit is underpinned by plush tannins, lending a chewy texture to the wine. Despite its bold character, there is a remarkable energy and brightness that adds a layer of complexity to the overall experience.

Renowned wine critic James Suckling awarded this wine an impressive score of 94 points, describing it as a big and rich wine with freshness and energy. He notes that while it is enjoyable now, it will benefit from a few more years of aging to soften and reveal its full potential.

Vinous also praises this Shiraz, awarding it a score of 94 points. The review highlights the wine's beautifully composed and sleek nature, with outstanding detail and superb flavor precision. Layers of blackberry, chocolate, and a gentle violet lift are supported by a core of fine yet firm tannins that drive through to a long, soaring finish.

Decanter World Wine Awards also recognized the power and opulence of this wine, describing it as powerful and dense, with intense aromas of espresso, mocha, fruitcake, and juicy black fruits.

Halliday Wine Companion awarded the 2021 Entity Shiraz an impressive score of 95 points, praising its impressive fruit depth, sandy tannin support, and long, plush finish of spicy black fruits and earth.

With its exceptional quality and rave reviews from esteemed critics, the 2021 John Duval Wines Entity Shiraz is a wine that deserves a place in every wine lover's collection. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for a few more years, this wine is sure to impress with its complexity, depth, and incredible value.
