Chaffey Bros Wine Co, Evangeline, Shiraz, Eden Valley, 2020

CB-EVANGELINE

Serious and cool EV Shiraz. Soaking plums, darker cassis, pencilly and vanilla oak influence (in a good way), cracked peppercorns and just a little leafy kitchen herb. Mid to full bodied with lovely flow and glide to the palate. Peering focus, narrowed eye slits drawing on purple and red fruits, nuanced with cool pepper and neatly etched tannins. Calm and serene.

RRP: $40
Alc: 14.5%
Rating: 93/100
