Hickinbotham's take on the Australian classic blend, and it carries the flag well.
An inky purple in colour, an array of aromatics that include plush plum and blueberry with a floral lift; oak gives a seductive veneer of richness.
An effortless wine that is supple yet expansive and tops off a truly stellar release of 2019 wines by Hickinbotham. The generous blue fruits from Shiraz have impact initially on the palate, it also knits together the most integrated of tannins. Cabernet gives tighter, slightly more earthen blackberry on the mid palate before a twist of dried herb and driving black cherry bring things to a close.
