NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Kay Brothers Block 6 Shiraz is a bold and intense red wine, with a deep ruby hue in the glass.On the nose, there are scents of blueberry, blackberry and spicy pepper. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and has a powerful tannin structure, with flavors of black cherry, licorice and a hint of dark chocolate. The finish is long and spicy, with a lingering hint of earthiness. This is a great example of a classic Australian Shiraz.
