Meaty yet elegant. Broad on the palate yet well-reined in by focused acidity. 12.9% Shiraz...breaking new ground in Australia.

This my friends is real Shiraz! All the bombastic explosive flavors but with just right amount of restraint! #nowukkins @rxwinelab

Red raspberries and tart cherry juice, with bright acidity. Light tannins. Not as earthy as expected. Tastes young but is a 2011.

It's got all the aromas! Summer camp? Tree sap? Diesel? White pepper? What?!
