A century ago, ‘Windjammers’ were the rhinos of sailing fleets charging through the roughest weather. This Shiraz “is a lot like the Windjammer, big and bold for the moment but with the voyage of a few more years, it will be the stuff of legend”.
Rich yet elegant and crafted in a modern McLaren Vale style, this 2012 Shiraz is deep, dark red in the glass and opens with dense dark fruits over vanillin oak on the nose. The palate delivers deep, ripe plum and mulberry fruit in a rich yet well-balanced savoury style with smoky oak adding complexity.
