From one of the estates highest sites on red brown earth enriched with ironstone and limestone. Matured in French and American oak for 18 months. A Shiraz with a flirtatious edge, this is lively with Acai and blue plums, mulberry and prune. Sage leaf and coastal greens there is a very pleasant woodsy herb too. The palate echoes the nose with bright acidity, medium to full body but with dainty pops of blackberry freshness and soft tannins. A moreish wine and would be at home with lamb kofta and olives. Drink now or cellar for 3-6 years further.
