DESCRIPTION
This is not your average Shiraz. The bouquet is a walk in the countryside filled with mulberry and lavender and a stroll through the spice market, with whiffs of cinnamon and white pepper. The palate is a symphony of plums and cherries, with notes of liquorice and wet forest soil. Finally, the tannins are like a soft brush of velvet on the tongue, contributing to the length of the wine. This Shiraz is the perfect dinner date for a pizza, lasagna or a garlic roasted chicken.
REGION
Margaret River
Australia
Margaret River, located in the southwest of Australia, is one of the country’s true wine gems. Renowned for its elegant Chardonnays with intense citrus notes and its highly refined Cabernet Sauvignons, the region enjoys a temperate ocean-influenced climate similar to that of Bordeaux. This unique terroir produces wines with a more European style, combining freshness, precision, and excellent ageing potential.
Today, the region also captivates with expressive blends and limited-production cuvées of remarkable finesse.
Recommended for you:
A Shiraz surprising in its freshness. I like its notes of dark fruits and spices, with a touch of lavender. The palate is balanced with silky tannins. Perfect with grilled beef.
