1998 Abbotts Cumulo Nimbus Shiraz

Made from Old Vines Shiraz, the wine displays opaque crimson colour, with deep crimson hue. The nose has a very distinct ‘animal’ quality, with notes of mocca, leather, earth and plum. On the palate, flavours of earth, sweet plum and stewed fruit with a touch of violet emerging. Fine grained, dry tannins, firm but balanced. The palate flavours continue to build slowly. Aftertaste of plum and spice.
