Knappstein
The Mayor's Vineyard Shiraz
Clare Valley, Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia, Australia
Dark red with blackish purple core. Big abundant nose of leathery black plum. Aussie smooth, full palate yields all of that leather surrounding baked black plum, blackberry compote, and molasses. The molasses sensation is tempered by medium tannins that assert from mid palate and medium lowish acidity. Classic Aussie Syrah with a bit more structure than the old school style. Pepper and coffee crusted beef roast or any other rubbed cut will pair nicely. Drink now through 2026
