Mak Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon-Shiraz 2003

Opening with a heady blast of perfumed blackcurrant, cherry and spice, this wine illuminates the cool finesse of Coonawarra. Polished, cedary oak overtones further lift the already fragrant berry characters. The promise of the aroma is translated onto the palate with dense, ripe wild berry flavors traveling the length of the tongue. Defined and persistent, fine-grained tannins provide additional structure to the long creamy finish that is kept in check by tight acidity.
