Bobbie Burns Shiraz 2021 Tasting NoteWine Making
A wet winter and mild summer with regular rainfall through the growing season allowed a gradual build up of ripe flavours to produce an elegant wine with great fruit depth and balance. After fermentation on skins for seven to ten days using open and closed fermenters, this wine was subsequently aged for a period of 18 months in a mixture of new to three year old premium French and American barrels.
Cellaring
Cellar up to 2031.

A youthful rich wine with blackberries, spiced plums, earthiness and a hint of licorice. Smooth and seamless, with subtle French oak and powdery tannins to finish.
