Flavor Profile Grade: A
This Shiraz from the McLaren Vale region of South Australia, is a juicy, fruity bottle of wine for the hedonist in all of us. The nose is vanilla and blueberry jam scented with hints of sweet spices. The palate is quite deep and shows liqueur-like concentration with supple tannins and loads of sweet fruit. The finish echoes the blueberry jam component and picks up blackberry nuances as well.
