Wine Description
Longview’s Shiraz Barbera takes the best of Australia and Italy and blends them together to create a harmonious, modern food wine. The Shiraz has all the hallmarks of cool-climate fruit — white pepper and baking spices with slight undertones of vanilla and cocoa – and the Barbera adds pop with fresh blackberry lift.
The palate is juicy to start with a burst of red-cherry brightness courtesy of the Barbera, then gives way to a Shiraz savouriness and taut acid backbone that gives the wine wonderful structure. It is a fresh, lean wine right now but as we see with this unique blend, develops into a generous crowd pleaser.
