2021 Bobbie Burns Shiraz

The 52nd vintage of a Rutherglen icon.

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.

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.

Alcohol: 14.9%

Aroma: Showcases a range of dark fruit, with plums, blackcurrant and black berries complexed with star anise, dark chocolate and a light oak background.

Appearance: Dense ruby red, crimson tints.

Cellaring:Cellar up to 2031

Serving Suggestions: Enjoy now with a Moroccan spice rubbed fillet of beef or over time with slow braised beef or lamb.
