An elegant, ethereal shiraz that opens up ever so slowly to reveal a spicy fragrance of raspberries, strawberries and chocolatey oak before a gentle palate whose juicy presence of cherries, berries and blood plums overlies a very fine spine of powdery tannins. Let it breathe if you’re opening it young.
A fine, restrained and elegant Hunter shiraz whose heady, musky and floral aromas of small black and red berries reveal faintly ferrous undertones of cedar and mineral. Medium in weight, it’s long, gentle and supple, with a lively, sour-edged core of raspberries, blood plums and boysenberries underpinned by very fine tannins and wrapped in a racy acidity. It finishes spicy and almost savoury, with an emphasis on red licorice, black and blue fruit.
Classically fine, shapely, taut and elegant, with a faintly floral bouquet of lemon and lime backed by chalky mineral notes and a whiff of melon. Long and very persistent, it’s pithy and flavoursome, punctuated by a refreshing acidity and finishing with a briny minerality.
