Over the Top Shiraz 2009
Wine: The Over the Top is Pertaringa's very best Shiraz. Acknowledging the very best site, climate, vines and production techniques, this Pertaringa Shiraz is named Over the Top to proudly declare our aim to make the finest wine we possibly can. The 2009 Over the Top is blended from the absolute best fruit from Pertaringa's vineyards and matured in the very best French oak. The Over the Top proudly displays all the qualities of McLaren Vale Shiraz.
We have met our aim to create an elegant Shiraz - a modern interpretation of McLaren Vale with a sense of place and purpose. The structure is sure to provide longevity and will reward you if you can manage to keep your hands off it and give it some further cellaring. However, if you are aiming to drink the wine immediately, we would suggest decanting the Over the Top before serving to optimise the drinking pleasure.
