Description

Fine grained tannins support spiced cherry fruit and plum flavours with some charry oak. It is this savoury oak and dark berries that remain in the mouth – a medium to full bodied red still very youthful but showing the potential to become a silky, juicy little beast.

This is really a wine that is made in the vineyard as we harvest the Shiraz and Viognier parcels simultaneously, run them through the crusher together and then ferment together allowing the Viognier to have maximum impact on the tannin and flavour structure of the Shiraz.

Try this at room temperature paired with rustic pork and fennel sausages on mash with caramelised onions.
