Smart wine, smart price. Brings two complimentary Shiraz areas, Langhorne Creek and the Barossa, together in the glass and the result is big, warm, cuddly, spicy and dark fruited. Deep, dense purple-garnet hues. Bramble, mulberry, earth, spice and licorice light up the aroma. A big mouthful of generous flavour awaits bringing Langhorne Creek deep earthiness and a Barossan density of black fruits together with dark chocolate and plenty of spice with just a lick of menthol. Slinky tannins guide the wine easily and long. A smart, well-made wine that expresses two like-minded areas noted for Shiraz, so well.
