Yalumba Shiraz Steeple Vineyard 2012

Totally opaque black dark red colour with a dark red hue. Scented aromas of blackberry, liquorice and dark plum meld into some vanillin cedar, earth and spice. Rich yet poised and supple with great fruit purity and exemplary length, opulently textured flavours of liquorice, ripe blackberries and some dark plums glide across the palate underpinned by spicy vanillin cedar, a hint of dark chocolate and pepper. Beautifully integrated velvet smooth tannins concluding with an exceptionally long aftertaste of ripe blackberries, liquorice, dark plums and spicy vanillin oak.Cellar 8-10 years.Alc 13.5%
