This is new territory for Shadowfax with a Barossa Shiraz coming out of a winery that has built a reputation on sourcing exceptional fruit from regions that suit the variety and Shadowfax winemaking style.
The wine is an Inky red to purple in color, the nose is fruit driven and oak is secondary with a saturation of plum and black cherry.
Dark cherry and raspberry is vibrant on entry with subtle wood spice and taut tannins framing the wine. The finish shows plum fruit with a slight savoury edge. Good length and balance.
