Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

The 2004 Mount Edelstone is 100% Shiraz aged for 18 months in 80% new French oak. Purple-colored, fragrant and complex aromatically with notes of toasty oak, tar, licorice, bacon, and blueberry, the wine is rich and mouth-filling with enough structure for 8-10 years of evolution in the bottle. It will drink well through 2030.
