IrvineThe Estate Shiraz 2021
About this product
NOSE: An initial spicy burst of cinnamon, cloves and cardamon that gradually gives way to boysenberry and cranberry fruitiness.
PALATE: Fruits of the forest, a little bit of spice and sour cherries all work within a complex and delicate tannin structure. Juicy acidity further lifts the palate, giving the wine balance and length. The finish is elegant and savory, indictive of its cool climate origins.

Deep, bright purple-red colour with a sweetly ripe red-berry aroma suggesting raspberry to red cherry, the palate adding peppermint and salty notes. It's concentrated and big-boned, a whopper with masses of tannins—but they are ripe and not astringent tannins. This would reward a little time in the cellar.
