Penley Estate Hyland Shiraz 2007

The color is deep purple with a rich ruby red hue. The aroma is varietal with a complex of berry ripeness, dark cherries, lifted fruit cake savouriness and chocolate nuances with subtle but well integrated smokey oak. Strong lifted aromas of ripe berry and spice, with complex savoury elements. The flavour is rich with strong ripe blueberry fruit flavours. A soft and rich middle palate with silky oak tannin which adds a savoury touch along with chocolate / mocha complexities on the finish to balance the fruit flavours. The 2007 is a medium bodied style wine, but elegant with a solid structure.
