I have never been a fan of Australian Shiraz and much prefer Rhône Shiraz, but this Shiraz is paradigmatic of the Australian style. The wine is fruit-forward and extremely flavorful, beginning with berries and ending with a long finish. If you are looking for a beautiful wine with this kind of fruitiness, this wine is the wine to buy.
