The Black Craft Shiraz, Barossa

A compelling, dark and rich chocolately beast, this is a classic Barossa Valley Shiraz with intense savoury flavours of thick blackberry compote, black pepper and typical iron-rich beefy flavours. Not a hint of jam here - no sticky sweetness - this is serious Shiraz for grown-ups with balanced acidity, a touch of cacao powder in the finish and tremendous length.
