Note di degustazione
The 2006 Shiraz was barrel-fermented and aged for 14 months in 85% new oak, with the barrels 90% American and 10% French. Saturated purple in color, it reveals a splendid bouquet of smoke, pencil lead, bacon, grilled meat, and blueberry. Supple-textured and opulent, this full-bodied Shiraz offers a range of spicy, complex flavors, superb balance, and enough well-concealed tannin to support 5-7 years of additional cellaring. This hedonistic Shiraz should drink well through 2026. Shirvington’s proprietors are Paul and Lynn Shirvington and the winemaker is Kim Jackson. Two wines, a Cabernet and a Shiraz, are produced annually from estate vineyards that are now 20 years of age. Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (805) 278-9095
