Geoff Merrill WinesWickham Park Shiraz Cabernet 2017
About this product
The colour is a dark red with good depth and purple hues. Although 2017 was a cooler vintage, the fruit aromas are ripe and intense. Savoury notes of earth, leather, black olive and licorice come forward.
The small percentage of Cabernet is having a large impact both on the nose and palate, adding herbaceous fruit, fine tannins and red fruit flavours.
The palate is generous in weight and texture, finishing on a fleshy cherry note with balanced acidity.

“A gorgeous wine showing gloriously attractive aromas of dark fruit, cedar, smoked game, dark chocolate and mushroom on the nose, leading to a concentrated palate that is plump and fleshy. The wine offers terrific fruit power and generosity, brilliantly structured by fine, chalky tannins, finishing impressively long and seductive. 5 stars.”
