A bold Victorian Shiraz from Mitchelton Estate in the Nagambie Lakes region. Rich dark fruit, layered spice, and integrated oak give it structure and presence, finishing long and polished. Pairs well with grilled red meats, roasted lamb, and aged cheeses; best enjoyed now or within a few years of release.
