Wine Expert Note:

Aromas of ripe berries and black pepper on the nose are complemented by subtle notes of cigar smoke, dark chocolate, and toasted oak. On the palate, this full-bodied Shiraz offers an intense flavor profile of dark berry fruits, chocolate-covered cherries, and allspice, carried on a silky texture and lifted by a bright acidity. The finish is long and spicy, with lingering hints of black pepper and sweet oak.
