Sidewood's Mappinga once again delivers a solid Adelaide Hills Shiraz with perhaps a little more ripeness than the previous vintage. The nose is a well of chocolate, plums, black licorice, and vanillin oak, with meaty, dried savory herbal tones in the background. The barrel influence is ever-present on the palate, but it nicely supports the silky plummy fruit and gentle grip of savory herbal tannins. A long chocolatey finish makes it easy to reach for another sip. Drink now until 2027.
