Voyager Estate Shiraz 2008
Deep, dark and savoury, with a concentrated, jujube-like aroma of intense cassis, blackberries, dark plums and chocolate/cedar oak lifted by a whiff of black pepper and spice and revealing briary, smoky undertones of mocha and vanilla. Supported by firmish, loose-knit tannins, itÕs densely packed with flavours of black berries, cassis, raspberries and plums, with undertones of blueberries and fresh cedar/mocha oak. It finishes spicy, savoury and slightly mineral, with a distinct herbal edge.

Winery
Voyager Estate
With a string of consistently fine wines across its entire portfolio, Voyager Estate is one of Margaret River's elite producers. It has achieved this without emulating the styles of other local makers, evolving its own stamp and signature of elegance and savoury qualities which its southerly location in the region encourages
Its estate brings traditional South African Cape Dutch architecture to the region and it certainly provides one of the region's finest visitor experiences. Voyager is steadily increasing the number of wines it produces, working through a series of 'project wines' to refine what eventually become its flagship wines.
