Winemaker's Notes:
Healthy rains in winter and spring set up the vines perfectly and allowed for stress free conditions
from veraison to harvesting. On the nose the 2008 shiraz shows earthy gravel, spicy licorice and
dense dark mulberries, while the sweet upfront berry fruit presented on tasting gives way to
complex cedar, earth and spice notes, wrapping up with ample structure and grip. The vibrant,
juicy fruit runs the length of the palate and lingers with a "have another glass" finish. |
