Gundog Estate Smoking Barrel Shiraz 2022

This in an intriguing wine, a blend of Hunter and Hilltops fruit, with plenty of detail but you have to go looking for it at this youthful stage of its development. The wine offers a handsome mix of dark cherry, damp earth and satsuma plum aromas laced with white pepper spice. Juicy and vibrant in flavour with integrated well tannins providing background to this mid-weight style. It’s reserved and will appeal to anyone looking for a more subtle Shiraz expression delivered in finely tuned package.
