2017 Linke Shiraz

Impenetrable midnight black core with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Expressive ripe dark plum, blackberry and chocolate bullet aromas rise out of the glass followed by spicy vanillin oak, subtle dried herb notes and a hint of raisins. Following in the footsteps of past vintages the palate is dense, rich, concentrated and liqueur like in its textural feel, however there’s an element of jamminess to fruit. Lush plummy blackberry and liquorice flavours are shadowed by spicy vanillin oak and confectionary elements. Velvet smooth tannins. With power to burn it finishes with some heat on the long lavish aftertaste.
Drink over the next 2-3 years.
