2020 Rocky Gully Shiraz

Shiraz 89%, Touriga Nacional 5.5%, and Malbec 5.5%

NOSE: Rich, dense fruit notes. Plum, blackberries and cherries are balanced by a hint of oak and spice. A touch of black pepper adds to the complexity.

PALATE: Juicy, textural introduction leads to a long fleshy finish. Medium weighted, spicey mid palate. Hints of plum and mulberry add to the alure of this wine.

ASSESSMENT : The small additions of Touriga Nacional and Malbec gives complexity and aromatic lift followed with subtle texture. Good acidity and fine tannins combine to create a soft finishing, well weighted cool climate style. Ideal food wine which will complement many dishes including pork, lamb and duck. Drink now for the next 5 to 7 years.
