Reviews
2021 Hoffmann Mickan BECKER SHIRAZ
Steve Leszczynski (www.qwinereviews.com)
93 Points - These cuttings were sourced from the Becker ancestor vines in Koonunga.
This is a wine for later, purely and simply. Follow that simple rule and you'll be rewarded in five+ years. Dense dark berry fruit, fruit bun spices, licorice bullets and some meatiness, it is drying and sapping. Powdery tannins scatter about. Still quite reserved and tight, it is yet to show its hand. Over a number of days of tasting, it started to show itself on day three. One for the cellar, this will improve over time as will the score.
Drink to fifteen years+
