Jasper HillEmily's Paddock Shiraz Cabernet Franc 2012
Dry, Full Bodied style of Shiraz Cabernet
About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Shiraz CabernetJasper Hill’s Emily’s Paddock is mostly Shiraz with a defining splash of Cabernet Franc. A lot has been made over the years of the terroir difference between Jasper Hill Emily’s and Georgia’s, but it’s the Cabernet Franc that really differentiates them. Wonderfully fragrant and lifted on the nose, Emily's Paddock is not only wonderful upon release, the wine will age gracefully over many years in the good cellar.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Bright crimson purple. The wine has an exceptional spicy fragrance that permeates both its bouquet and palate, underlining its innate elegance the blackberry, black cherry and licorice fruit flavours are precisely balanced by fine grained, persistent tannins and oak on the long palate.
