The 2006 Shiraz Nuriootpa was sourced from 60-year-old vines. Deep crimson-colored, it has an already multifaceted perfume of smoke, black pepper, bacon, and blueberry. This leads to a smooth-textured, ripe Shiraz with layers of savory fruit, soft tannins, and a pure finish. Drink it over the next eight years.
