the name is an oblique reference to shiraz, which forms the basis of this cuvée. it's inky in hue and rather reticent on the nose at first. but swirl it vigorously and be rewarded with layers of cassis, blackberry and black pepper. full bodied, rich and tannic, its blueberry and cassis fruit lingers on the long, mouthwatering finish. drink 2015–2025.
