Wynns V&A Lane Cabernet Shiraz 2021

You have to love this blend. It’s a modern expression of an older classical Australian style and combination, with both varieties picked on the same day and co-fermented. The fruit was picked earlier to accentuate its lively red fruit characters. It’s lower in alcohol than many wines, yet not as low as some in previous years. Still it has excellent fruit expression with a silky smooth and graceful line running through to a very long finish. Nice wine to tuck into while you wait for some of the others to cellar.
