Dry, Full Bodied style of Shiraz
About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazA lovely well balanced wine, the peppery characteristic that was usually associated with Shiraz , had well integrated with the plum and ripe dark fruits on the nose. Savoury cherries, stew fruits with restrained dusty tannins on the palate. Medium bodied with a long finish. Decanting essential.
A lovely well balanced wine, the peppery characteristic that was usually associated with Shiraz , had well integrated with the plum and ripe dark fruits on the nose. Savoury cherries, stew fruits with restrained dusty tannins on the palate. Medium bodied with a long finish. Decanting essential.
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.

Mulberry, cassis and smoky aromas, with floral and spicy high-notes. Good fruit, smooth and yet tannic at the finish. Slightly young, raw and brooding. Gutsy tannins need time to mellow. Good for the cellar. Now to 2020+.
