The co-fermented blend is only produced in years that allow for optimum ripeness of both varieties, so we thank the gods for the 2021 release. Shiraz Cab blends can often be passed up for single bottled varieties, however this 2021 shows why you should reconsider that notion. A gathering of great familiar characters, this is like a dinner party with the perfect selection of guests. Blackcurrant leaf, blue gum logs meet ripe mulberry, plum and peppercorn. Weighty and decadent with the fine acidity to carry all the copious flavours. Another wine for even the fussiest red drinker.
