2009 Wirra Wirra RSW Shiraz

The 2009 RSW comes complete with a major face lift. Gone is the traditional blue and white Wirra Wirra label, replaced with a sleek black bottle, silver laser etched front label and a metal logo badge. Maturation took place in French oak of which 40% was new and the balance 2-3 year old for a period of 19 months.

Totally opaque black crimson colour with deep black crimson red hue. The nose displays lifted scents of ripe blackberry, dark plum and dark chocolate followed by a touch of liquorice and some mocha showing good intensity. The palate boast a rich mouthfilling seductive flavour profile of ripe blackberry, dark chocolate and dark plum followed by a touch of mocha and a spicy back palate. Velvet smooth perfectly integrated tannins. Excellent depth with very long blackberry, dark plum, dark chocolate and spice aftertaste.
