Voted Best Shiraz under $25 at 2011 McLaren Vale Wine Show

The 2008 Basket Pressed Shiraz is medium purple in colour, with a lifted nose of rich blackberries, tobacco leaf and smokey bacon fat. This medium to full bodied wine is upfront, rich and round in structure. Ripe mulberry and blackberry fruit flavours predominate with hints of cassis and dark, bitter chocolate. The tannins are ripe, furry, yet supple. There is a warmth to the delicious, lingering finish.
