• Subtle earthy and savoury notes emerge with some air, adding complexity.

👅 Palate (Taste)

• Spice and pepper weave through the fruit, lending structure and classic Shiraz character.

• Oak influence brings in soft notes of vanilla, chocolate and toasted oak without overpowering the fruit.

• Tannins are medium-structured and smooth, providing balance and approachability.

🍇 Overall Style

A classic Hunter Valley Shiraz — rich, ripe and spicy with dark fruit intensity, integrated oak influence and a smooth, approachable structure. Great for enjoying now or over the next few years as it gently evolves.
