10/2023. Dark color. Nice on the palate. Smooth finish. From Australia and made with Aussie Shiraz grape Saperavi grape from Georgia. Paired well with the petite filet at Hall’s Chophouse.

Deep ruby color.
Aromas of ripe red fruit, tomato leaf, earthiness.
Dry. Flavors of cherry, tomato leaf, hint of cocoa, forest floor, black olive, black pepper. Rich, velvety tannins. Very interesting!

A beefy shiraz, nice undercurrent of cinnamon with the berries. Soft tannins, but structure there.

So smooth with a slight fruity but not overwhelming fruit after taste. Highly recommend. We tasted at the cellar door and had a few bottles sent home to enjoy. Has a full bodied taste but light after taste.

Great red wine. Actually fantasic red wine. Knock it back every night of the week if you have the money to. Soft tannins, beautifully balanced with just the right amount of fruit...like the french wish they could make.
