A robust McLaren Vale Shiraz that softens with time under its wings, give this Chapel Hill Road Block a decant to see it at its best for now or tuck it away with confidence for the long term.
A spicy number, blackberries aplenty are partnered by puffs of earth and some black tea. Once comfortable, Christmas cake and cedar rise up with waves of exotic spices that are relentless in their arrival and presence. Dusty tannins are drying yet add a neat moreishness. It's a wine that grows on you, that's for sure, a steak on the coals is calling.
