- From our Marketplace - Leaves warehouse in 5 days
97% shiraz, 3% viognier. 35% whole bunches. All French oak for 12 months. A pretty, well framed wine, light to medium weight, slightly reductive in a positive way. Mulberry, red cherry and plum flavours roll softly into peppercorn and florals. Resiny oak is a player but not a major one. As with all the Moppity wines, it feels immaculate. Read more

Tasting Notes
Youthful and vibrant with seamless, juicy dark berries. Richly layered with a flavour packed combination of blackcurrants, black olives, graphite, Asian spice, blue berries and cocoa notes. The finish is supple and smooth.
