A charming expression of Shiraz from the Frankland River, a region with so much Shiraz potential. Wild raspberries, kirsch and ripe boysenberries. Terra Cotta, autumn leaves, salted caramel and paprika. Tinned plums open up to sweet vanilla and nutmeg. Weighted in the mid palate, the wine feels considerate without being pushed to the extreme with succulent and nicely poised fine tannins. A very enjoyable wine that showcases the region well – drink with lamb backstrap slightly bloody.
