2001 Zarephath Shiraz

Bright crimson colour, with crimson hue. Medium body. The nose is appealing, with aroma of spice, violets and ripe pears followed by a touch of white pepper. The palate is quite dry, with flavours of ripe plum and stewed fruit emerging over a spicy background. Moderate length. Aftertaste of stewed plum and spice followed by a raspberry aftertaste. An elegant style of Shiraz.
