Awards, Reviews and other Notes

89 pts Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 2007
Deep ruby. Vibrant red berry-scented bouquet offers suave floral and spice qualities. Silky and sweet, with straightforward red and dark berry preserve flavors, soft tannins and plenty of finishing strength. Some may quibble about the lack of complexity but this is simply delicious.



Winemaker Notes

Youthful, lively Shiraz wine with lots of blackberries and spices along with a smooth palate of soft tannins.

- Machine picked fruit, 6 day ferment on skins, pumped over twice daily for 30 minutes - Malolactic fermentation undertaken - Blended and oak matured for 12 months - Bottled
