Gundog Estate Marksman’s Shiraz 2023

Sorry, but this 2023 Markman’s Shiraz hits the mark with its youthful core of blackberry and wood smoke aromas with a touch of violets and quite a serious backdrop of French oak. An ethereal and measured Shiraz expression, with a young taut frame and some very serious oak adding the extras. The length and complexity are exceptional suggesting a promising future.
