DogRidge’s sustainably farmed vineyards are home to some of the oldest vines in McLaren Vale, with 80+ year old Shiraz, Grenache, and Cabernet Sauvignon growing on their McLaren Flat site. MVP is their Most Valuable Player, and the pinnacle of the winery. This Petit Verdot hasn’t been made since 2005. With 10% whole bunch, this was native fermented with extended skin contact and spent 6 months in new French oak before being racked to older barrels. It remains in wood for around 2 years prior to bottling. Smoked stones, crushed violets, boysenberry compote, liquorice work through a muscular palate, with grippy tannins still quite present, though now thankfully somewhat absorbed into the fruit, a decade on. There's a swell of acidity to raise this chewy wine through a lingering spiced finish. One to enjoy now with roasted meats.
