Mitolo was established in 1999 by Frank Mitolo whose vision is to create wines of individuality, integrity and utmost quality. Underpinned by its motto “strong yet gentle”, Mitolo’s wines seek to reflect a unique Australian style of being powerful yet elegant. In 2000, the first Mitolo Wine called G.A.M. was launched. With acclaimed winemaker Ben Glaetzer’s winemaking skills, Mitolo has since achieved outstanding reviews from globally famous wine critics and a market demand outstripping supply.

Tasting Notes:
Perfumed with lifted blue fruits, red berry compote, creamy nuances and a hint of vanilla. Plush and elegant on the palate, showing satsuma plum, ripe raspberry and blueberry framed by silky tannins with very fine texture, while delicate flickers of fresh herbs add savoury elements to the wine. Medium-to-full bodied with great depth but remaining poised and balanced by vibrant acidity for an effortlessly moreish finish.

Grape Varietal(s):
Shiraz

Awards & Accolades (Robert Parker/ Wine Spectator/ James Suckling etc):

“The 2020 Small Batch Series Angela Shiraz is made in an aromatic style: it is perfumed and elegant. The fruit is sourced from the southern part of the Vale. In the mouth, the wine sings with blue fruits and vibrancy. It has notes of deli meat, aniseed, blackberry and plush fruit-powerful and neat. This is quite lovely, with coulis and pink peppercorn-moreish.” – Wine Advocate, 94 points

“Modern shiraz from a warm place, albeit riding a sleigh of tension. A clench of reduction bestows floral and iodine scents, evincing an air of somewhere considerably cooler. Boysenberry sweetness across the mid-palate suggests otherwise. Loads of salami smokiness, licorice, lavender, clove and thyme, too. A little drying in the finish, but pretty convincing. Drink or hold. Screw cap.” – James Suckling, 93 points
