Hare’s Chase Marananga Cabernet Shiraz 2017

This fits snuggly into the groove of Australian red wine with a combination that has worked so well, especially in the Barossa Valley. Smooth, concentrated and massively flavoursome with some nice oak management. The cabernet is certainly providing the spine to align to the long finish while that plush shiraz fills through the middle. The tannins are so silky with a fine chalky feel, while the fruit dominates as it should. It also has a delicious tactile mouth feel of texture and a subtle viscosity.
