2004 Cape Mentelle Shiraz


2004 Cape Mentelle Shiraz

Ripe dark red plums, black cherry and tomato characters. Quite a fragrant and intense nose showing some nice white pepper character typical of cool climate shiraz.

Tight on the palate, with balanced fruit and savoury elements and finishes with finely grained tannins and fresh acidity. Elegant and restrained and a fine example of MR shiraz.
