1998 Bethany Bin GR6 Family Reserve Shiraz

This is the top wine produced by the Schrapel family. Very deep crimson colour with brick red hue, showing some bottle age. Superb nose – bursting with the aroma of violets, confectionary and liquorice all sorts, followed by a raisin cake endnote. The palate is velvet smooth with layers of vanilla, confectionary and spice followed by back palate flavours of raisin cake and violet infusions. Excellent length. Fine grained tannins, perfectly balanced with very long aftertaste. A wine about to reach it’s peak.
