Tasting Note
Beautifully pure aromas of blueberries, violets and spice leap from the glass. Silky-soft texture, lusciously juicy fruit and fine balancing acidity. It is extraordinarily harmonious and delicious to drink already, yet its superb balance and intensity mean it should drink well until 2020 or longer.

Winemaking
Fermented in 1.5-2 ton open fermenters, hand-plunged 2-3 times per day. Extended maceration was employed to enable good tannin development so the wine is soft and approachable early. 10-20% barrel fermentation for selected batches. Due to perfect fruit and vintage conditions, a portion of new French oak was used for the maturation.
Press
-
Rich nose of spice, blackcurrant, leather and a herbal character. Full bodied, with high acidity and alcohol, integrated tannins and lots of oak. Great potential.

Full, deep crimson-purple; revels in its multifaceted array of black fruits, led by blackberry, but with confit plum, earth, licorice, a hint of dark chocolate and spice to complete a high quality package. 95/100.

This is a very good release of this wine. It ramps up the flavours but nothing’s flabby, it’s all well toned and shaped, the blackberry and asphalt flavours rolling deliberately through the palate, the finish then satisfying. Robust red, done well.92/100

A favourite of mine
I love big reds and shiraz in particular, and the 2016 Bishop is very good indeed.
