Three Elms Mount Frankland Shiraz 2018

A serious, and seriously good Frankland River Shiraz. Opaque magenta hue, the nose weaves through a mix of dry herbs and spices, chocolate and licorice, soy, florals, minerals and tobacco leaves. From the first sniff, it is clear that this is a bit special. Impressive structure which is refined and yet retains some exuberance with plenty of tannins giving the wine considerable grip. Excellent length and balance, this wine is still very young however will drink beautifully for at least the next ten to twelve years. A cracker.
