2014 Wild Duck Creek Estate Springflat Shiraz

Matured in both French and American oak hogsheads for 22 months of which 45% were new.

Magnificent colour saturation to the point that it’s hard to imagine a wine being any blacker, displaying an impenetrable core and a very deep dark purple black hue. Lavishly scented aromas of black plum, liquorice and blackberry rise from the glass over chocolatey vanillin cedar and spice. The voluptuously rich palate is awash with ripe blackberry, black plum, liquorice and black cherry flavours that sit confidently over a backdrop of lightly smoked vanillin cedar and spicy pepper. A robust tannin structure is largely concealed by the rich heavily textured gobs of fruit. Outstanding power with a long liquorice, ripe black cherry, blackberry, dark plum, smoky vanillin cedar and spicy pepper aftertaste.
Cellar 5-6 years.
Alc. 15.2%
