A delicious soft fleshy Shiraz.

Fruit for this Shiraz is procured from a range of vineyard sources ranging in age from 15 to 50 plus years with yields around 3 tonnes per acre. The resultant wine was matured for 17 months in a combination of seasoned French and American oak.

Superb impenetrable inky black colour with a very dark purple black hue. Nosing reveals ripe dark plum and liquorice scents followed by some ripe blackberries, vanillin cedar and spice. Rich and plushly textured the palate features moreish flavours of dark plums, blackberries, liquorice and subtle dark chocolate over some vanillin cedar and spice. Soft velvety tannins. Very good depth with a long conclusion of dark plum, ripe blackberry, liquorice and spicy vanillin cedar.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
Alc. 14%
