Tasting notes of winery's winemaker

APPEARANCE

Deep purple / crimson.

BOUQUET

Fresh aromas of plums, black cherry and roasted nut intertwined with cinnamon, vanilla

and dark chocolate.

PALATE

Rich fruit driven front palate is jam packed with plums and black cherries. The mid palate is all strawberries and cream with lashings of vanilla custard. This fruit richness and luscious mid palate

is the hallmark of this wine style, with sympathetic and balanced oak completing the traditional Shiraz flavour and structural profile. The youthful grape tannins provide a gritty texture and firm length that will soften and integrate with age.
