There’s value to be found in this vibrant shiraz, with its ripe, fleshy mid-palate and notes of raspberry, red jelly, licorice and blood plum. The palate is expansive, with tannins showing a slight gravelly rusticity that makes it a natural partner for charcuterie and barbecued meats.

Bright red in the glass, youthful. Plum and dark cherry aromas, along with sweet oak, dried herbs, ferrous earth and spice. Fleshy, blue fruited, structured and punchy in flavour. More mid-weighted, with plenty of firm tannin and perky acidity at the core. The length is impressive, as is the mouth-feel
