Hewitson 'The Mad Hatter' Shiraz 2021
Price: 26,67€
DESCRIPTION
Hewitson is not your average winemaker. Dean Hewitson, aka the ‘Mad Hatter,’ makes extraordinary wine, some from extraordinarily old vines that date back to 1853 (P.P. - pre-phylloxera). The Mad Hatter nickname does not come from Alice in Wonderland, but considering the aromatic journey this wine takes us on, it might as well have. This shiraz is picked from the best plots from the Hewitson vineyards. It is filled to the brim with notes of red fruit, especially raspberry, and sprinkles of pepper and spice provide the wine its complexity. The tannins are fine, while the finish is velvety smooth. The Mad Hatter will pair nicely with lasagna, bolognese, or lamb skewers with herbes de provence.

I was expecting something very full-bodied and discovered an ultra-crisp wine, very silky and elegant. A real surprise, I loved it.
