A full-bodied, well structured showcase Shiraz. The wine was matured in new French oak barrels and has a light peppery scent of ripe berries, perfume and spice. Will gain complexity with 3 to 5 years of bottle maturation. A serious wine to accompany fine cuisine. Good with aged steak, hearty stews, and smoked meat.
