A lighter-style Shiraz showing elegant cool-climate expression. Deep crimson with a maroon edge. The bouquet offers ripe black fruits with Morello cherry and raspberry, complemented by delicate violet lift. Eight months in French oak has added subtle complexity without dominating the fruit, producing soft, plush tannins and a gentle savoury thread. Ready to enjoy now, it pairs equally well with food or on its own.

• TA: 5.6 g/L
