2018 Curator Marananga Vineyard Shiraz

Matured in French oak (45% new) for 24 months. Impenetrable inky black in colour with an equally deep black dark red hue. Wafting out of the glass are heady scents of dark plum, blackberry and liquorice followed by spicy vanillin oak, dark chocolate and fennel. Rich, heavy and voluptuously textured in the mouth, lavish dark plum, blackberry and liquorice fruits swamp the full bodied palate. Vanillin oak, spicy dark chocolate, fennel and some mocha characters lie underneath. Velvet smooth tannins. Excellent power and depth finishing long and opulent.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 15%
