2003 Wirra Wirra R.S.W. Shiraz

This wine has spent 20 months in French and American oak. Opaque black crimson colour with deep crimson hue. The nose delivers a superb sniffing experience with top notes of violets followed by spice, vanilla, cedar and liquorice allsorts. The palate does not quite have the power that one expects from an RSW. Flavours of liquorice, plum and spice are followed by cedar and leather back palate flavours. Fine grained, dry tannins. Aftertaste of liquorice, plum and leather.
Cellar 3-4 years (2009-2010)
Alc/Vol: 14.5%
