Tasting profile

Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry

Hunter Valley Shiraz in the regional idiom — medium-bodied, moderate in alcohol, and built on savour rather than sweetness. Red plum and dark cherry with earth, dried herb, black pepper and the leathery note the region develops with age. Fine, powdery tannin and a long finish. The Hunter is humid and subtropical, which ought to be hopeless for wine and instead produces reds of unusual longevity at surprisingly light weight; this sits squarely in that tradition.
