Think of this as a classic muscle car. It won't beat those fancy European sports cars over a mountain, but as time goes on and things straighten out, it'll leave that fancy piece behind. Showing fabulous age-worthy traits, this Coonawarra Shiraz is a keeper in great form.
Take a sip and it feels cool. Mint and eucalypt shimmer in the background before black fruits and a flash of blueberries go about their work. It zeros in on the mid-palate and sticks. Wonderful depth, its that curl into a corner of the lounge kind of wine that you want to sit with all night. It barely flinches after several days of tasting. Wines like these are well worth sticking in a dark place for a few years before they reveal their true beauty. Big love!
