A wonderful Shiraz that is smoother than most. Full bodied with fruity flavours. Pleasant lingering flavours. Smokey undertones. Great with lamb dishes and Moroccan style foods

Great value! Light for a Shiraz, not big but good balance and fruity. 2014.

Fantastic value Shiraz, quite light, closer to a Zin or even Merlot. <£6 in the UK
