Big and bold—a true Australian Shiraz. Bursting with cherries and spice, this wine has soft tannins and a long, satisfying finish.

Drinking in feb2019. Spicy. A little fruit forward. Went well with a marinated flank steak and Guacamole.

Dark, bold berry flavour. Great on its own on a cold night by a fire.

I don't often drink Shiraz but this was very enjoyable indeed. In fact, I had a bottle previously and liked it so much that this was bought for me to drink again!

Smooth Shiraz with a hint of dark fruit and spice. Definitely lacks intense peppery bite of most shiraz's but if you're looking just to kick back with a mellow wine, then this is for you.
