Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Vivid ruby. Fresh raspberry and cherry aromas are complemented by spices and flowers, picking up a peppery quality with air. Nervy, focused and spicy, offering bright red berry and cherry skin flavors and a touch of candied rose. The finish is nicely brisk and focused, with a peppery note adding..

This is blended with a touch of younger vintage Shiraz..

An ethereal bouquet of black cherries, blackberry preserve, red currant and rhubarb makes way for a background of tobacco, ginger, and black pepper. Good balance of acidity, gentle tannins and a long persistent finish. Full-bodied and ageworthy.
