Wine Description
This Shiraz is a keeper, for anyone with the willpower to cellar it; the rest of us it is a case of drink now and revel in the intensity and richness of the fruit.
The deep, rich, ruby colour tells you this wine has weight and concentration; just what you’d hope for from Landaire’s Shiraz. The bouquet is like baking Christmas cake and the palate has these flavours and more besides. A sprinkle of white pepper, cloves, juicy blackberry fruit and the all-important, fine tannins which ensure that the wine lasts.
Drink to 2030 with your preferred cut of steak.
