the palate is layered and intense

spice-tinged cherry and blackberry scents are brightened by suggestions of smoky minerals and pungent flowers

The middle weight flavors are not as concentrated but they’re finer and more mineralinflected while delivering good length on the bone dry and linear finish

Rolf Binder, Hanisch Shiraz other_regions_italy the palate is layered andFull medium ruby. Complex, expressive aromas of raspberry, violet, gunflint, iron and mocha. Then superripe, dense and chewy, with notes of maple syrup, salt and pepper. A sweet, broad wine with a slightly aggressive back end. A rather successful example of the thick, saline style of Australian shiraz. Stephen Tanzer
