Nose: fruity and fresh, aromas of cherry and red currant. Taste: acidity above average, not fully balanced by fruit. Cherry, red and black currant jam on the palate. Alcohol perceived as above average. Somewhat on the watery side in terms of body fullness. Medium long finish.

Nose: bursting with red and dark fruits and berries. Taste: vivid acidity, yet well balanced by lavish fruit. Alcohol above average, medium body. Red and black currant on the palate, as well as figs and prunes. long sweet and salty pleasant aftertaste. Great Shiraz on its own or as food accompaniment.

Nose: fresh and fruity. Taste: ripe fruits (cherries, plums) and spices. light to medium weight, mellow on the palate. Nice food accompaniment.
