About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazMornington Peninsula, AustraliaPaul Scorpo's meticulously planted Mornington Peninsula vineyard produces superb fruit, and with Sandro Mosele of Port Phillip Estate heading up winemaking duties, the wines have quickly carved out an excellent reputation. Deep garnet in colour with a purple hue edge greets the eye with this Shiraz. Powerful aromas hint at exotic spices, dark juicy fruits, and undergrowth, all adding to its richness and savoury, chewy palate. An elegant and harmonious example of complex cool-climate Shiraz.

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.

Spicy, savoury aromas. A fistful of clay and some wet stones. Red fruits, brambly kind of feel, and a small hit of vanilla. Across the palate a firm, tannin driven wine that punctuates with fresh, briary red and black berry fruit and a touch of sarsaparilla through the finish. An architectural, strict feel, but that slightly slippery, mouthwatering acidity that glides the wine to back palate.?
