This is a spectacularly good cool climate South African Shiraz blend from the highly talented Duncan Savage (formerly of Cape Point Vineyards).
It pushes fruit over iodine and has an appreciated light handed restrained extraction. Color is youthful translucent ruby with aromas of brand new leather gloves, graphite, and juniper. High acid dark plums and blackberries envelope perfectly grippy tannins and a mouthful of minerals, coffee, and violets. As elegant a Shiraz as I’ve tasted
