Description

From the exciting Blackwood Valley in Western Australia, we bring this fruit forward wine that dances the line between warm and cool climate shiraz and offers fantastic value. Picked at optimal ripeness, the grapes were crushed into large stainless fermenters and spent two weeks on skins to build up colour, tannins and fruit intensity. Minimal use of oak, as to keep the wine fruit focussed. The wine is vibrant and appealing on the nose with delicious berries and fruit flavours bursting from the palate, complimented by a sprinkle of black pepper and subtle vanilla oak. This is a medium bodied Shiraz all wrapped up in silky tannins. A great drink while young but will also cellar for 5-7 years. Serve this one with barbecued chicken, spareribs, burgers or a well-stocked cheese board.
