Kay Brothers Block 6 Shiraz 2012 750ml

From Kay Brothers’ historic Block 6 in Barossa Valley, the 2012 Shiraz delivers classic Barossa depth and structure. Dense dark fruit, cocoa and spice mingle with a sturdy tannic backbone, offering great aging potential. A polished, cellar-worthy expression that rewards decanting and pairing with hearty fare such as braised beef, grilled lamb, or aged cheeses. Tasting notes: - Appearance: Deep ruby with a hint of brick at the rim. - Aroma: Blackberry and plum core with dark cherry, cocoa, and espresso. Subtle vanilla, black pepper, and clove spice. - Palate: Full-bodied and dense, with ripe tannins and balanced acidity. Flavors mirror the nose—black fruit, cocoa, and a touch of licorice—backed by mocha notes and spice. Long, persistent finish. - Structure: Structured and age-worthy; integrated oak and lingering tannins support a lengthy evolution in the bottle. - Finish: Long, savory finish with spice and tobacco nuances.
